Betharram to Arudy 16+ miles. A soul crushing day. Heat, loooooong hills and a few wrong turns. About 10 hours of walking . Just wanted to be done!✅

This was an absolutely gorgeous day but it got hot. Later in the day We ended up taking a swim in a river - it was cold 🥶 but felt so good to lower the body temperature.

Started hiking out of Mauléon lots of steep hills. Our hotel host was so accommodating. Nice buffet breakfast and they even packed a lunch for us!

We set out to only do 10 of the 27k planned. We made the decision to skip ahead because of the dangerous heat.
