This day is mostly about perseverance. It’s about 23 kilometres and you’ll be on the road for almost 7 hours. Nowhere does it get really high, but the path climbs and drops all day long. Those short climbs take more out of you than the map would suggest.
The landscape is open and peaceful: fields, hills and the occasional edge of woodland. There’s little to rush you and plenty of space to let your thoughts wander. You descend slightly more than you climb, and you’ll feel that in your knees. Uzan is a small village, so don’t expect a bustle when you arrive. Break the day up with a few set rests and you’ll still be enjoying the last few kilometres.
