The villages along the way looked like small oases, with their bright green fields of wheat. The arid, barren landscape, the heath, the cactuses, and the shepherds with their goats or cows, gave us the feeling we are not only walking in the Far West, but also in the Wild West. In Riga, a tiny settlement of just a few houses, one woman asked me to make a picture, which is quite special, as normally [...]]]></description>

It was a tough walk, as besides climbing the pass we covered a distance of about 28 km. The landscape was beautiful; almost the entire day we walked through beautiful forests, with pine trees and trees covered with mosses. We passed a few small villages as well, where especially the children were very excited to see us . Close to the pass the landscape suddenly changed from thick forest [...]]]></description>

We walked almost 24 km, crossed 2 passes and went down 2500 m! We had to climb to a first pass first, at 4346 m, after which it went down to 4294 m (which is a bit frustrating!).
