Walking and Cycling Guides for France, Belgium and Luxembourg
France is predominantly a country of contrasting rural landscapes, from the soaring mountains of the Alps to limestone gorges, fields of lavender, ancient volcanoes and Cathar castles, each demanding your attention and understanding. It can mean very different things to different people. For some it evokes thoughts of vineyards, elegant chateaux and fine food; for many of us, the landscape invites us to explore.
