      GR20

      Corsica 7 hours ago

      Hello!
      Id like to walk the famous gr20 track but I probably wont be able to spend 15 days for walking so I have to decide which part of it to take, northen or southen. I was thinking of walking the northen part from Calenzana to Vizzavona.
      1. Has anyone taken it? How was it? Difficoulty in a scale from 1 to 10 where 1 is a walk on a beach and 10 is the hardest track one can imagine?
      2. How many refuges were there? Can you camp on the track?
      3. What about food? Is it best to take lyophilisated food or can you buy some food in small villages on the track
      4. Im planning to go there in september, is it a good time?
      5. How to get there the cheapest way? Plane/ferry/car/train? (excluding hitchhiking)
      Thanks for your help! :)

      Oh... were to go in Brittany???

      Bretagne Apr 26, 2013 at 3:46 AM

      Hi All,
      I have never been to France, a friend is recommending Brittany for our first time. We intend on using the ferry to cross from Dover to Calais, we will be driving.
      I have spent around 6 hours this week trying to work out a rout that will show us some interesting sights/places/towns/beaches, but oh my words! I am more confused than when I started, can anyone recommend a rout or a book that has routs in France to follow.
      Thank you so much for your help

      coming off the ferry in Boulogne

      by mintola Online Now Jul 1, 2005 at 5:38 AM

      We have had a few day trips to Calais via chunnel and one holiday by ferry Dover to Calais, but have booked a speedferry this year from Dover to Boulogne. Hubby is still apprehensive about driving in France and is worried about what it is like getting off the ferry in Boulogne, we went there on a day trip about 19 years ago and the roads were so busy. We will be travelling to the Compiegne area. Is it still busy, or will we be ok getting out of Boulogne on to the main road? I just need to calm him down a bit before we go in 2 weeks time.... thanks

      Hi. Thinking of heading over the channel to Boulogne and staying over a saturday night. Are the shops in Boulogne open sunday? Can you recommend nice things to do on the sunday walks/drives/sightseeing (the nautica place is going to closed when I am thinking of going). Also can you recommend a hotel - centre of the town is best. If its out of town it should have a restaurant within walking distance (preferable a choice of restaurants as I am a vege!). Comfy and romantic more important than luxuary and looking to spend no more than 50 to 60 pounds sterling. Thanks loads for your help. Love Laura
