AUTHOR’S PREFACE

Having walked the Pyrenean High-level Route and GR11 many times, I was apprehensive that the GR10 would be the poor relation to these coast to coast routes across the Pyrenees. However, I was delighted to find the GR10 to be every bit as good as these two magnificent routes.

The first Cicerone guide to the GR10 by Alan Castle was published in 1990. His work was taken on by Paul Lucia whose new guide was published in 2002. Unfortunately Paul died in 2007 and, despite updates by Ton Joosten, it was time for a new guide as the GR10 had gradually evolved, with improvements to the route and changes to accommodation and other facilities. This completely new guide includes all changes made to the route up to 2015.

It is now just about possible to walk the GR10 without camping or using bothies and this guide is organised into 55 stages for the benefit of those who are using accommodation along the route. Walkers who, like the author, prefer wild camping in the mountains will find much greater flexibility in their planning.
