Small, not cool section on the side of the exterior road Grande Motte, Grau du Roi to do really at the edge and quickly!!. Too bad the safety barrier does not protect us until the end!! Otherwise nice walk.

At the last kilometres, in the Bois du Boucanet, the plots have been closed so there is no longer the possibility of following the announced route. Be careful ⚠️ this course from the start can be very dangerous because you find yourself walking on the 2x2 lane and crossing it twice as well as a busy road.
