The Beast of GevaudanPhoto: Angus Carrick, Community
A pleasant walk through old villages and then changing to more desolate countryside, with forests and moorlands.

We set off in pleasant morning sun deeper into the land of the beast of Gevaudan, passing yet another defensive Tour des Anglais. Today we met up with various other pilgrims, some of whom we were to meet again. We also started to travel through more desolate countryside, with forests and moorlands. We passed by one hostel in the Domaine du Sauvage, where we paused for a drink. Later, we found a quaint little refuge for weary pilgrims at Saint Roche, after which we moved into the region of Occitanie, where the beasts that were hunted were boars. The day ended with our arrival at a country hotel with a new dormitory annex for pilgrims.
