Maison Forestièr de l’ Estanyol
mist and sun fighting
good path through first beech, now pine forest
reaching the last pass – Col de la Cirère (1731m asl)
sea of clouds on the ‘other’ side
sheep trying to hide and/or stay cool
disused mining builings with great graffiti
wind measure?!
more ruins
café at ‘Batera’
the Gite Refuge de Batère (approx. 1460m asl)
more downhill
yes, this is the way!!
ruined Refuge / Station des Vigourats (890m asl)
only the trees hold up the boulders from blocking the way. thanks!
detour (with 120m added ascent) to a Dolmen
very cool path!
more lovely, but very dry forest
getting closer to civilisation
the unspectacular end.
Abbaye in Arles
shopping?
installed at the final camping

17,5km with 450m of ascent and a whopping 1600m descent in 5,25hours.
