" We are a semi-retired Aussie couple who in 2014 decided to go on a long walk thru southern France ... a walk our investigations showed no-one had completed in one go ... a walk to take us around the beautiful forever changing Department of Lot ... a walk of endurance during which we would climb the equivalent of Mt Everest and come back down again ... a walk of some five hundred plus kilometres predominantly on lonely paths ... a walk where we would carry our daily needs on our backs ... a walk where we would spend most nights in French villages sleeping peacefully under three stars (ie hotels) after a twenty plus kilometre daily effort followed by a sumptuous dinner washed down with local wine... a great walk of some twenty-seven unforgettable days and nights ... the TOUR DU LOT "
