A short climb of about 1.5 km with maximum gradients of 11%. It's a nice little climb to test your legs.

Shortly after the Château de Beyris, the pilgrimage route goes straight on along a dirt road. There are plaques hanging on a tree with good wishes for pilgrims. A soothing motivation on a hot day. The steep descent down to Labsale is more suitable for cyclists. Both paths meet again below.

Dear Herbert, that's a nice reminder of this beautiful section of the Way of St. James, which we also sweated along today!

A small, probably family-run hotel with a swimming pool in the middle of town. An oasis of relaxation, albeit without air conditioning, which we would have loved to have had in July 2022. Friendly welcome and cultivated French culture! Bicycles can be parked free of charge in the locked and covered inner courtyard. Reservation via email in French and English. simply possible. Double room 70,-. Detailed, very good 3+ course dinner for 30, - was very worthwhile for us! A recommendation from the pilgrim guide that we have not regretted!
