[QUOTE="High Endeavours, post: 625443, member: 20842"] Thanks for your replies and clarifications. My wife will be with me so I was curious about some of your earlier comments, and for her experience I need to be a bit more aware than when I walk solo. I've walked distance in the south of France a couple of times, and generally have a good idea of what to expect. However, each route has it's own unique features and challenges. JabbaPapa, I believe I understand your point. I've also walked routes where one is directed over unnecessary terrain or through areas which aren't relevant to the intended journey (meeting people in their communities, etc) and I've learned to adjust my route. The weather too is always in the back of my mind vs route conditions. Thanks for the heads-up should it be raining. Mud isn't your friend! In that case we will find the quieter roads which are often quite beautiful to wander along. Generally I think we will mostly follow the GR route for the beauty and the experience. Our French is a bit limited and having some route markers is often helpful. We will begin walking from Lodève Sept 21, but will be walking fit before we leave home as has been our past practice. I suspect that it will still be warm and dry, but of course this isn't always guaranteed. Our primary guide resource will be Miam Miam Dodo. I'm not in the habit of using GPS, but we will carry an Iphone with us (will need a SIM card and a data plan when we arrive). Is there something else (an app or GPS) that we should be considering? I know this route is not well travelled which is part of the appeal, but also part of the challenge. Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
