Last night in the Pyrenees. We are bivouacing with a view over Hendaye and the sunset. It has been an adventure.

After almost never ending good weather the rain finally caught up with us. Just as we are entering basque countryside we are in fog and rain for days. But today we got to have some dramatic views as we got under the clouds.
Four days hiking left to the Atlantic.

Just another day waking up and having a amazing view from the tent.
We are so lucky with the weather and the Hexatrek route is following gr10 for this section.

We have narrated our latest YouTube video in English, so it can reach a broader audience. It is about the trails of Hexatrek and why we are switching to gr10 for now. It has been to difficult for us.

Our bivouac place last night and the view this morning. It doesn’t get much better. The next couple of days we travel through Andorra.

Every day a new breathtaking view! The morning light is so beautiful and early morning is luckily also much better temperature for climbing up from the valleys.

Today have been a big birds day. We saw red kites constantly, but also an eagle (most likely a white tail see eagle), many cranes, 3 storks.
We have followed the river Elbe for two days now and are not tired of walking on top of dikes. The water level is rather high, but I think that is normal for spring. We don’t see the old border much, but then we come across remnants kept for history.

Today have been a nature day. We saw signs of wild boar, a beaver including a beaver dam, and a pack of red kites. You can almost see them in the picture. iPhone is not good for nature photography 😀

Our fist encounter with the old border between east and west. Almost as if we had planes it, we came by the border museum “Grenzen museum”, and then we step foot on the old patrol road.

On this day, six years ago, I started my Appalachian Trail thru-hike the right way - from the Amicalola Falls. Did the stairs, with my pack on. I spent 199 days (including few days off the trail due noro) hiking over the Appalachian mountains. Last year I attempted the PCT and wish to return one day. Because long distance hiking is an adventure like no other.

Hello, friends and supporters of the North South Trail,
Our website is now available in English. Many thanks to Pura-Vida and Sonka for all the work. I'm sure there are still many mistakes to correct, but after all, we are all not "native speakers" and besides, nobody is perfect. 😜

Smiles (AKA Daisy Hikes) is back on trail and starting her second thru hike of the Florida trail. Her vlogs are starting to post. She’s genuine, I like her. PCT twice, CDT, AT twice, FT, AZT, quite an accomplished long distance hiker and completely nonobvious and unassuming. (link to first vlog)
