Question

Route plan from hemel hempstand england to lattes south of france le lac des reves?

Answer 1

With the 2 above, it's pretty done. Just consider buying a road map of France once in France, and certainly a local road map of the area you will stay at.

Michelin and IGN are the 2 most serious map publishers in France

Answer 2

Hi

I've done this trip a few times.

There is a quick way and a pretty (and quieter) way !

So,

UK : M1, M25, M20.

France (quick) : A26, A5, A31, A6,  A7, A9

This route misses Paris. Hit Lyon at a quiet time and reckon 9 hrs Calais - Lattes.

France (pretty and quieter) : A26, A1, Francilienne (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francilienn... A10, A71, A75

This route takes the outer ring East of Paris which starts at CDG. (Note, some go west round Paris - I've tried it, but got lost !) It then goes through Massif Central, crosses the Millau bridge and leads pretty well directly to Lattes. Not quite finished at the Montpellier end. But, it is free after Clermont Ferrand ! Normally 10+ hrs to Calais.
