Four-day walking tour of 1914 French battlefield

[Martin Bennitt]

The French rambles website Visorando has published a guide to a four-day walking tour of the sites of the September 1914 Battle of the Ourcq, which preceded the main Battle of the Marne. A bit arcane perhaps and a knowledge of French is required but they are extremely detailed, like all Visorando walks, with GPS coordinates and all. Seem to be very useful for anyone visiting the area, if they ever get there anytime soon...
