Thoughts on the way from Payerne to Lucens
From the diary of the pilgrim James
I hike almost the entire way along the La Broye River – pure relaxation for my now-weathered feet. The famous Henniez mineral spring lies on this stretch. As a pilgrim, am I entitled to a sip of mild, chilled water? I try my luck – and am amazed at the variety of flavors offered to today's hikers: mango, passion fruit, kiwi, with lots of carbonation, little carbonation, or even nothing at all… And yet, nothing is as refreshing as pure water, which can quench your thirst!
