April 10, 2022,Monts Lyonnais : tour de la fraise 🍓

Main objective: to hike 20 km without a break.
With performance.
Calorie intake: dried fruits only while walking.

I loved this hike, also very well known for being the mecca of mountain biking.. we call it the strawberry hike 🍓
Too bad: not exceeded 1000 D+.
