Lac d'Estaing stroll. Making friends with locals 
Bit calmer than visit the other week & lake is like a mirror!
Monday 22 July 2024
Crystal clear Lac d'Estom & the equally pristine Gave de Lutour. Many shallows & waterfalls on this hike. Stunning!
Tuesday 25 June 2024

Camping by Lake Annecy. Bit grey on arrival but remnants of today's storm look cool blowing over peaks on other side.

Short stroll this morning by the shores of Lake Geneva. A dip might have been tempting last night, but not right now!
Saturday 17 June 2023

Yesa Reservoir: Sea of the Pyrenees. Sadly seems there's been no 'sea' here for years. Quite surreal landscape today.

Just back from hols mostly riding in mountains & by lakes. What to do? Cycle Lac d'Estaing for more of the same!
Friday 8 July 2022
Nice spin in Parc naturel regional des Volcans d'Auvergne. Quite a mouthful! But great park could spend more time in.
Tuesday 5 July 2022
Sunset at Lac de Vaivre. Parked up in a quiet spot by this lake. Very nice & thankful it's still not peak season
Sunday 3 July 2022

Wednesday 29 June 2022
The Trift Bridge. Because why wouldn't you build a rope crossing between cliffs above a glacial lake? A. Maze. Ing!!!
Sunday 26 June 2022
Random shots from today's little drive along Lake Maggiore. Feriolo then coffee stop in Intra. Another glorious day.
Saturday 25 June 2022

... and so we find ourselves on the shores of Lake Orta. Quite pretty with some hills around. Weather seems OK. Phew!
Monday 20 June 2022

Tuesday 7 September 2021
Messing around on the shores of Lac de Matemale

On the shores of Untersee. We were last guests of the season in this campsite & they gifted us the stay! Danke!
Thursday 3 October 2019
Little forest walk to the shore of Brombachsee.
Monday 30 September 2019
Sunset by Chiemsee. Spectacular! Feel like we could be on a Pacific island - if not for Alps on the horizon
Monday 30 September 2019
More random pics from a lakeside campsite. Gotta love out of season travel - this place would be packed in summer!
Friday 20 September 2019
Random stop for lunch overlooking Lac de Serre-Poncon. It's not about the destination...
Monday 15 July 2019
Stunning Lac d'Artouste. 2000m up, but with the sunshine today & that crystal clear water, feels almost tropical.
Saturday 29 June 2019
When your teenage guest is missing the beach... we find ourselves at Lac de Lourdes. I'll admit water was lovely in.
Friday 20 May 2016
Things to do this arvo, so little spin up the Aspin & to Lac de Payolle was all there was time for today. Oh well!
Friday 22 April 2016

Lac de Longemer: what a spot! Roads here are awesome, but there's baguette & cheese to be eaten before any riding!
Saturday 2 May 2015
Morning stroll by the lake shore next to Castle Howard. Saying hello to some of the locals along the way... quack!

Saturday 21 March 2015
Nyepi day in Bali. Silent at dawn. We cannot leave hotel today so booked one with large grounds. So beautiful here.
Tuesday 5 August 2014
Lunch spot: Refugi de Juclar. Nippy at around 2300m up. Lake next door would be prettier if it hadn't been drained
Tuesday 22 July 2014
9km later... back down by Lac du Tech. Such a nice way to spend a few hours.
