The Village of Eyne to Refugio d’Ull de Ter
Today was awesome. It didn’t rain. We walked on trail with few rocks. We walked on the France/Spain border for a couple of hours. This means the spine of the Pyrenees from which we had stupendous views. And we met up with Brian and Joanna from the USA who are walking the GR11 and whom we met back on day 9 in Candanchu.
We are staying at Refugio d’Ull de Ter. We got here at 2:30 and ate a 2nd lunch…. Plat del dia which was salad, rice and a big sausage (botifarra) and I ate it before I even thought about taking a photo. We thought about walking farther but it’s supposed to rain in the morning, there is a big waterless stretch coming up, there is no sheltered camping for 5 hours and this way I can have wine with dinner.
Dinner was the best yet. Soup with rice, carrots, onions and celery. Salad. Yes salad at a refugio. There is a road close so all food does not need to be helicoptered in. Roast beef with onions and mushrooms. Watermelon. I’m stuffed.
Tomorrow it might rain in the morning. I hope it doesn’t.
No doubt : you are in France.
Or in Spain may be.
A fine walk………and dinner.
Good foid, good company and 🍷 wine.. A winning combination!
This trip may spoil you. Hard to hike in the USA when you get used to dinner and wine every night.
You got that right. There are many trails in Europe with wine every night! I will be back.
Hi Nancy!
Just caught up on your blog – looking great!
Here’s Paul going over Mather Pass in 2014, we camped together at Middle Rae Lake that night.


And here he is with Chantal in Colorado in 2015, we crossed in different directions somewhere along the northern end of the CT.
Really not sure they would remember me though. Hah.
Awesome! I’ll make sure Paul gets these links. I miss you.
