GR10 Trail
The GR10
The GR10 extends from the small resort of Hendaye on the Atlantic coast to Banyuls-sur-Mer on the Mediterranean. It runs along the northern, French side of the Pyrenees and covers about 900 kilometres (560 miles). In following this trail, Sue and Ivan will climb and descend the equivalent of Everest from sea level almost 6 times. Put another way, that is like climbing half way to the edge of outer space!
"We expect the walk to take us about 8 weeks and we will overnight in our tent or in refuges and mountain huts along the way. It is a well-marked trail that is much walked in the summer, although not many people cover the whole length in one go. We are under no illusions that this will be a challenging expedition..."
