226) GR5-22

The GR5 is an approximately 700-kilometre long hiking trail including 40 000 meters of ascent and traversing the heart of the French Alps from Lac Léman (aka Lake Geneva) in the north of France to the Mediterranean Sea in the south. It is one of the world’s most spectacular hiking trails. I will solo hike this trail over several weeks.

Thanks for taking us along!

This part was just as beautiful and interesting as the previous stretch that you did. I can see why you are so happy Christina. It must seem like a dream right now. (And the part where you said "oh man" had a deer running across the trail in front of you that prompted that reaction from you:) All in all a great day and a great place to be hiking, hanging out, and camping. Thanks for another excellent video for us. See you on the next stretch of this adventure. Stay safe and stay healthy.

I'm constantly amazed at how each place has just a little bit of a different character. Each vista and valley seems so unique. Love this series, cheers! 🥂

Very beautiful nature my friend

Glad you are enjoying the trail. That seemed quite a lots of uphill this time on trails that had washed away. The deer leaping into the woods was amazing, but I was sad to miss you saying bonjour to the cows😂

Another amazing video. I had to watch it twice to catch Campfire52's observation!

So do I see you’re using a stick to replace the broken trekking pole. Always the overachiever 😊
