Had a nice afternoon walk today.
Another beautiful hidden village
built on top of a rock.
Wonderful!!!!
You are short of eyes here. Especially if you drive about 50 km from the coast.

This is a walk from Patrick Elvin's excellent book, Walks around Gaucin. You will walk through beautiful cork oak forests and enjoy some stunning views on the way.
