Wouhouuuuuu being informative and entertaining was exactly my goal :) So it's cool when it works!

You definitely reached your goal 👍🏻🥳

Thanks buddy! So you can download the gpx file and follow all maps offline as there is no need for connection to use the GPS, saving your battery a lot. And France is one of the most developed countries in the world vis a vis its wilderness, you can access pretty much any point super easily, so clearly beginning and end are very easy to reach via bus/train/hitch hiking, etc :) No worries there!

Hi Andy, we started in Wissembourg and got there very easily by train from Strasbourg (ca 55min direct regional train). Cheers and happy hiking 🏕️

Oooooh ddn't realize actually it was on day 69 :D well, good catch ;)

Ahah I was hesitating a lot to use that track or another, I'm glad I went for that one. Other option was this : ua-cam.com/video/a0DbzUe-r4Q/v-deo.htmlsi=oGdPLPOl4BPPVugC

That’s so funny, turbo folk! That could be nice for next documentary in Balkans:p

Ahahah woooooooow thank you so so so much, I really appreciate that you took the time to watch my videos :) It's a bit long to hike 3000km yes, but after all it's just one foot in front of the other :D Glad you appreciated the humor especially ;)

Ooooow thank you very much for this comment, and I'm not sure if I deserve more views but I'm super happy you are saying it :) Indeed the Pyrenees are coming but first the very warm junction between Alps and them, which is editing at the slowest rate possible :D I'm really glad you like this style :)

Hey Doug! Well that's quite easy actually, it's as simple as sending it to a post office in "poster restante" and they keep it for 2 weeks for you there. But there's even better : you can send it to many many "relais colis " when you buy online, like Amazon pick up points etc. Also you can send in advance to hotels/camping grounds, where they'll wait for you to come pick em up. The trail is not wild, you'll cross path with villages almost daily :)

@@cartapouille Merci Awesome thanks for your response. I’m hoping to hit the trail mid June going south to north. It does look amazing

Ahah le lobbying fonctionne, je ne marche qu'à la pression sociale, donc le montage commence!

Owwww this comment warms my motivation, thank you very much for taking the time to follow along on my silly journeys. Right as I'm starting the editing of the next episode! Thank you soooooo much

Yay!! 🎉 I didn't dare to ask when... if... you would finish the next episodes (no pressure!).

Nice béret right ? Well very easy, just go there www.manufacturedeberets.fr/beret-traditionnel-homme-c2x38662183 and order one! The size of the actual head doesn't matter as it's cinchable, but the size I'm wearing for the actual diameter of protection is 10.5 (big enough for actual protection, not too big to be unwearable in cities)

Arf you caught me there ! Well the folder has been created, now I need to get out of my 8 months lethargy and edit it :O It's number one on my to do list :) But this kind of comment is motivation !

Haha good! So sad it ended, I was enjoying your honest review of what you were going through, the lakes were funny

@@Sunlitpickle ahah I'm glad you enjoyed that, it cost me severe criticism of "how dare you saying that about this trek?" Ahah :D

@@cartapouille😅

Wouhou thank youuuuu

@@cartapouille that's the big shit! Ofcourse you can download the GPS.... But you are always looking on your phone or device.Why not saying with GR they used so much easier

@@Iggylux Because it's not lonly on GR sadly. Maybe you can just follow GR5 and GR10 all the way and actually be happy to walk almost the same. But Smartphone in plane mode is enough battery for a while, and as long as you avoid the non marked sections, you'll almost never have to look at your phone because France has amazing trails everywhere!

Where can you find these comments? And if you found something I'd be interested as well!

ah I found it - maybe that is also why cartapouille got kicked out by the hexatrek founders...

Hey man! Sorry this comment flew under my radar, let me answer you :) So it's pretty easy : don't follow blindly the trek, but follow the GRs. GR in France are amazing, especially GR5 and GR10, they are extremely well maintained, don't require to be a mountain goat and there are no sketchy sections. Put both the hexatrek and the gr10/gr5 maps on top of each other, and follow just the GR5 until you cross to the Pyrenees. This junction is safe to continue on the hexatrek as it's mainly non mountainous, so it's hard to make it hard on purpose. And in the Pyrenees GR10 all the way for smooth sailing and crossing France by foot. The GR tracks are free to find a bit everywhere on the net, and apps like Mapy.cz or Gaia are amazing to follow the road, you can boot the gpx of the hexa on it to see when to avoid those annoying parts. Les écrins is such an obvious skip as it's visually a detour yeah, and the junction is a perfect GR !

@@j.w.1079 Not really kicked out but ostracized by one man more like, from the association that I'm a co-founder of so not really by "the founders". It's been a real shitshow that I explained in a public letter, that I might eventually pin in the next videos. But yeah, that's one of the reasons indeed, being honest publicly

Ahahaha can't judge by experience, but by cheese availability? Hell yeah!

@@cartapouille sans vouloir mettre la pression bien entendu ;) C'est que ça fait rêver pendant les mois de grisaille 😍 Beau travail!

Thank you very much! You are absolutely correct, I hiked it all and filmed it all! And you are right to ask, I need to produce and edit the next episodes, but it takes a lot of time and my life has been hectic in the past months, that project drained me :) But I'm on the way to the editing software, many others have been calling me out to finish that series, and I will : you'll get the whole trek for sure! And I hope before you guys start to hike it :)

Oh thank you very very much, that's the kind of message that helps me find the motivation to continue the series :) Next episode will be ready as soon as I start editing again, I admit I lost a bit motivation and got lazy, but I'll continue now :)

@@cartapouille I can't wait 😃

​@@cartapouilleyou do an amazing job with your videos! I'm also looking forward to the next one

Yaaaay thanks! @@hansakermann

@@Zackman10000 Oh that's so nice of you to say that, really helps to get more motivation here :) I'll continue then !

Oh wow thank you very much, that will motivate me to go on with the editing of new episodes then :)

Oh thank you very much! Arf you are correct, completely forgot that subtitles would surimposed on each other! I'll think about it for the next ones :) Ahah indeed the name of the episode could announce something far more disastrous :p

🥰

Merci beaucoup! Ahah ben la première section c'est un vrai plaisir franchement, ma partie favorite! Et yay faire tout l'HexaTrek, génial!

Amazing! I'm really glad I could have this impact, and hope you'll enjoy :)

Thank you for your comment ! :)

Well as I finished it was kinda forced for me to pass there, but damn it is my favorite memory on the trail in terms of nature moment!

Hehe franchement le Vercors est incroyable à traverser, c'est superbe, fastoche et très très "nature". Je recommande grave! Après monter sur le Mont c'est un autre délire :D

Oui, j'y serais surtout pour la nature :)@@cartapouille

@@jtktomb8598 Alors tu vas te régaler :)

Entièrement d'accord, en toute impartialité bien sûr :D En tous cas merci pour l'accueil, le fun et ta super interview, en plus de ton soutien sur toutes ces vidéos. C'est hyper apprécié :)

You were so beautifully framed and what you said was rather inspirational! I'm curious though: did you say 'these treks and trails' (like the subtitles said) or 'these tracks and trails' (that's what I understood)? Do you remember?

@@Nynke_K i think you're right I said "trek and trails" but I obviously meant "tracks". But my English is far from perfect and when it's recorded in live it's even more difficult to find the correct words 😅

Thank you! Well the point of this docu series is to show the world that France has amazing landscapes, and motivate foreigners to come say hi! And also to fight the cliche that french people only speak french and that they wouldn't be welcomed :)

@@cartapouille super!its a very good initiative you have a perfect english ☺

@@medymoreno8778 Oh thank you very much buddy, i appreciate that :)))

Ahahahahah well I hope you managed to get back on the viewing after this outrage! At the moment you wrote that comment other Germans actually reacted as well to this claim, in fact, 37% of the comment were about this claim. So the urge was shared it seems :p And as I stated elsewhere, it's a hill I'll die on : nothing beats a baguette to me! And every other one we do :D In fact, I never even heard about German bread before another German hiker on the trail mentioned it to me, and we spent weeks arguing over that while walking together.

Ahahahah yay it woooooorked! Every time I was doing those outros, i tried to come up with something on the spot and most of the time it was random and silly. But I was secretely hoping that one day it would work for at least one person, that it would happen to be the exact activity that person was doing as they listen. And it worked on you!! Yay !!! That makes me stupidly happy ahah :D Thank you very much for this, and for listening to it actually. Also yeah the ACL is a classic with me, and now after fixing it the surgery weakened my kneecap that got fractured a month ago. This knee will be my forever nightmare :D

Merci :)

Thank youuuuuuuuuu

Yes I am :)

Oh ja 😂

Ahahah I was expecting some Germans there, as it's been an ongoing conversation with another german hexatreker I walked with for several weeks. But yes it's a hill I'll die on: we have the best bread in the world, and no weird black dense dwarf bread that stays the same for a week will change that! Baguette forever! :p

@@cartapouilleas another german, I have ro say: Italian sourdough is where it's at...

Ca doit être un syndrome de Stockholm avancé! Bon après t'entendre hurler de temps à autres "cheval!" était quand même super cool :D
