Comment on Val Claret
This summer I will be walking most of the E2 trail, which goes from the North coast of Holland through to Nice on the south coast of France - all 1500 miles of it. Occassionally, I will be posting some blogs to let people know what I'm up to (mostly walking, eating and sleeping I suspect) and how I'm getting on.
I'm also trying to raise shed loads of cash for charity, so for more info visit www.justgiving.com/matthewmellor ... full info
