Tour de Cerdagne- Beautiful 4 Day Trail to do in Pyrenees | Odeillo Solar Furnace, Bolquere, Eyne, Font-Romeu

Camping at the field with hot air balloons | Tour de Cerdagne Train Jaune, Bains de LLO, Centrale solaire Ello in Pyrenees, France

First time hiking with the trekking poles – Will it be a fail? | Perfect One-day Hike to Cambre d’Aze Peak in Pyrenees, France
On this one-day hike we conquered the mountain peak Cambre d’Aze (2711m) which is located in Eastern Pyrenees, France. We started the hike at the Eyne ski station (1800m) and had to do around 1000m uphill and 1000m downhill. We spent full day hiking this trail and did 26 kms in total.

So we…
