Once L’Isle-Jourdain is behind you, the Gers countryside takes over. It’s a day of around 22 kilometres, with short climbs that ease gently into descents. Nothing to dread, but you’ll feel it in your legs.
The route follows plenty of small roads and runs alongside open fields. On those stretches, the sun and wind set the mood of the day. At around 6 hours of walking, you have plenty of time to stop and take in the view. You’ll finish the stage in Gimont without any rush. The last stretch winds between the fields, with the hills slowly fading behind you in the afternoon light.
