If you are interested in hiking and holidays in Europe please have a look at the following pages. You will find details for instance about hiking routes in the French Pyrenees (hills and high mountains), information about the medieval city of Mirepoix, Carcassonne, Foix, the caves of Niaux and Lombrives, detailed hiking routes in and near the Gorge du Verdon and do you know the hiking route 'Het Pieterpad' from the south to the north of Holland? I walked this route together with my sons Polle and Sem. We have finished on the 5th of May 1997. Now we are on our way to Santiago de Compostela (GR5 and GR65).
