Excellent walking, off-road and on small tracks winding through vineyards and sparsely populated forests. Our only difficulty being the number of roads still blocked by flood damage. Paul, determined to sleep in a bed that night, managed to comandeer the help of a local gendarme who led him to a large, bourgeois house surrounding by land, on the edge of the town. The owners, charming and relaxed with regards to Nellie, offered a grassy top terrace where she spent a pleasant night.
Accommodation: Hotel de Parc – ideal pilgrim accommodation in budget terms, but also for location – stereotypically French – crooked floors, anarchic showers and creaking beds. Lorgues, a town that is sufficiently tourist-orientated to offer facilities, but not so much that you want to avoid. A highly recommended stop.
