This route looks awesome. There is a small section I took many times when I was a kid growing up in East of France. Thanks for the navigation files!

A nice video following the first through hike, with tips on how to follow the route, camp, find food and water and most importantly enjoy. This is not a speed hike but an enjoy hike. There is a mentioning of a run through the whole trail in 49 days, if this will be submitted remains to be seen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ib2y8ETS-Ww

Really nice trail. Does anyone happen to know if there is an unofficial FKT for this and who set it up?

We know that Yves Loup Fanton did the whole route in 50 days approximately, we did not get a submission for this though.
