[QUOTE="roving_rufus, post: 1153632, member: 21017"] Day 10 Contis Plage to Moliets-et-Maa 30km Left just before 6am, and onto the Velodyssee bike path through the woods. Saw a wild boor a little out of the village. After 9km I reached Yons with its source - a spring long thought to have medicinal properties. Here I rejoined the marked route and moved onto a track (parallel to the bike path). 6km later came crossroads at St Girons Plage (there are campsites here for a shorter day), then 1.5km to another maison forestiere, before more track beside the Velodyssee bike path. Unfortunately I couldn't take the marked route as a footbridge was closed (due to reopen later in 2023) at La Nasse on West side of the Etang de Leon (lake). So the choices were to follow the Velodyssee on the east side of the lake to Leon, or the shorter option of following the Velodyssee to a road junction and onto D328 with 2km of bike path and 6km of road walking. I decided on the second option- the road was busy enough but there were lots of cyclists and other pedestrians. The road route to Moliets-et-Maa cut about 5km off but not to be recommended if the bridge is open! I also missed a chapel that dates to C12th and was relayed to Templiars and pilgrims when this was a well travelled route! (But it is rarely open). So in Aire Naturelle de Franc on edge of Moliets-et-Maa on a farm. Very chilled and relaxed (much more so than the big campsites I stayed at in Contis and Hortin Plages). It has special pilgrim rates for camping and and for rooms as well. Today was probably my least favourite day of walking. But it may have been I felt a little subpar, and the last 6km of road didn't help either, nor passing through anywhere for a coffee (it is possible to detour in Cap de l'Homy or St Girons Plage but it added mileage). And maybe it's just I am drawing to an end with Bayonne approaching soon. [/QUOTE]
