This year we are travelling from Carbonne 31390 to Fronsac 31440 in the South West of France and this year we are including a walk as well as a bike ride.
The bike ride (otherwise known as the Garonne Challenge) will follow the Parcours Cyclable de la Garonne for virtually its full length, from glimpses of the Pyrenees at Carbonne to ending up right in the mountains alongside the river at Fronsac, not very far from the Spanish border.
The Saturday cycle event is a circular tour taking in the lovely Neste Valley with our lunch stop (along with the walkers) being nestled below the UNESCO World Heritage site of Saint Bertrand de Comminges (known locally as the Mont St Michel of the south). The walkers have the opportunity of a circular tour starting and finishing at Valcabrere with its superb mosaics and visiting the historic and magnificent cathedral and town at St Bertrand de Comminges.
Please join us for a single day or the whole event and help us to raise awareness and funds to allow us to continue our work supporting English-speakers in France touched by cancer.

Thank you!
