  47°N 2°E (visit #7)  

#1: Overview, 180m away from the road intersection on the south

(visited by Pierrick H.)

07-Jun-2026 -- Français

En juin 2026, j'ai traversé la France d'ouest en est à vélo le long du 47°N parallèle afin de visiter les points de confluence. Le 7 juin, je suis arrivé au point 47°N,2°E, 5ème point de mon périple.

Ce point est à nouveau situé dans un champ, cette fois à 160m de la route. En ce début juin, ce champ aussi est cultivé de blé. Je suis arrivé depuis le village des Bordes au sud-ouest et j'ai laissé mon vélo à l'intersection des routes. Pour atteindre l'endroit exact du point, j'ai pu marcher dans les traces des tracteurs et éviter de trop piétiner le blé. J'ai à nouveau pris le temps de trouver l'endroit exact pour faire les photos.

In June 2026, I cycled across France from west to east along the 47th parallel to visit the confluence points. On June 7th, I arrived at point 47°N, 2°E, the 5th point of my journey.

This point is again located in a field, this time 160 meters from the road. At the beginning of June, this field was also planted with wheat. I arrived from the village of Les Bordes in the southwest and left my bicycle at the road intersection. To reach the exact spot, I followed the tractor tracks, avoiding trampling the wheat too much. I again took the time to find the exact spot for the photos.
