Firstly, the Aire is 10 Euros for one night then 7 euros per night after that.
The gorge walk is free.
We are 7.2 m long. We are currently weighing under 3.5 ton.
I wouldn't want to come in anything bigger.
I certainly wouldn't want to meet anything. It's only 150 m but you double check yourself but keep seeing signs for camping car.
It's next to the car park and appears disciplined separation. Water with black and grey dump.
To go on the "walk" you enter under the railway bridge of petit jaune train. You may want to note the times it will pass over as they are available on the internet.
You walk up a narrow path and all seems well with the world and after a while you have a choice. DO NOT CHOOSE LEFT unless you have a mountain goat as a pet in dire need of exercise.
Unfortunately we went left. Dogs being carried children being carried and one lady had broken her arm and artificial sling and a belt wrapped round her belt being held on to by her husband. It is also a lot longer and you still can't see the river but end up at the same place as if you turned right.
If you do take the advice then 10 minutes uphill zigzagging then relatively flat but quite a drop in the carved out half tunnel but rest assured this route has been checked by health and safety and there is a rope to hang on to.
Beware the very uneven surfaces and occasional loose rock.
If you're still reading the 2 paths join together and this is where the bridges and walkways and ladders and swing bridges begin.
We went vertically 700 metres before "Done enough it's more of the same"
It's supposed to be 4 hours.
Good shoes or dam decent trainers.
We set off at 8 degrees jumper and coat. Reckon it got up to 15 and coat and jumper lost and in rucksack with saturated back.
It was hard work (going right)

Note to everyone who wears glasses with granddad string in the back. Don't try to adjust them while over the river on a bridge. They may fall in.

Too many photos so will add them to Steam baths journal up next
