Granges de la Brasque
15 to 18 August 2021
The weather is good, so Detti and I head off on a short holiday to the Granges de la Brasque, a place full of childhood memories and which became an all time favorite relaxing camping spot for Detti and I. The fact that the best cheese in the world is made there is also a great calling card. Oh. And did I mention that at times wild strawberries, blueberries and raspberries are to be found for those looking for them? And that a mere 40m from the camping site there is a fountain with cold and fresh and oh so pure spring water?
On our second day, Detti and I hiked to the little summit nearby, the Mont Tournairet (2085m), small (per our standard) yet, the view from the top is amazing, and we can clearly see many of the summit that my dad and I have been crossing one after the other this last few years. A nice outing, with some raspberries ready to be picked on the way down. Miam! (side note: there is a little well made cabin just by the summit, would be a beautiful spot to hit for a night in early spring when all is still covered in snow!)
We are joined by my parents for the last 2 days, trip down memory lane, a night by the fire, good food, great company, amazing times and… a few kilos of raspberries!.
