Maps are added to Pyrenees stories. Each story starts with a map showing the location of our accommodation and starting points of the hikes we have taken. Click on a starting point of a hike to get driving directions or to jump to the story of the hike. Stories include inline galleries and links to more photos in flickr as well as tracks (with even more photos) in everytrail. Click on a picture in inline gallery to view larger pictures.
As an example you see here a map from Pyrenees Lescun story.

We take a train to Meudon. The EcoTrail shuttle bus is already waiting at the Meudon-val-Fleury station and brings us to the location of the race start. We are between the first arrivers at the spot but more busses come and soon enough all the place is filled with runners (about 1000 of them) and walkers (almost 200).

It does not look like a day will be sunny and nice (yet cold). Still that’ s exactly what happens and we have a nice walk for more than 4 hours 🙂

It’s sunny and cold (-15 celsius). We check-in our pole-bag and take a breakfast at airport Lido restorant. The weather forecast tells+7 on Saturday in Paris. 🙂
