| Lescure Jaoul in the distance |
This
was the third time we have taken part in the Lescure Jaoul Marche Gourmand, a gastronomic walk which takes you to each course of your meal over a distance of 13km. This year the organisers provided a map of the route. After the heat wave of the last few weeks
the temperature was perfect for walking and even dropped to a chilly 14 degrees
when the sun went down.

Lescure Jaoul is
a small village on the edge of the Massif Central and the route overlooked deep gorges and wooded valleys. The highest point
of the walk was Le Cheval du Roi at 623 metres.
The spot chosen for our Entrée was picture perfect with far reaching views and the sun beginning to set.
This
year 1,200 people took part in the event.
The last stage is done in the dark and I always find it magical watching
the procession of torches wending their way up through the night to Lescure
Jaoul and dessert.
