Faire de la randonnée.

Go hiking.

意味

Walk long distances, usually in the countryside.

🌍

文化的背景

The 'GR' (Grande Randonnée) trails are a network of long-distance footpaths. The most famous is the GR20 in Corsica, known as one of the toughest in Europe. In Quebec, hiking is often called 'la randonnée pédestre' to distinguish it from snowshoeing (randonnée à raquettes), which is very popular in winter. Hiking is practically a national sport. Signs are yellow and very precise, often giving the time it takes to reach a destination rather than the distance. This French territory in the Indian Ocean is a hiker's paradise, with 'cirques' (natural amphitheaters) that can only be reached by foot.
