Anyone walk this route recently?

[Vinnie]

Hello all.

I'm starting in Montpelier in September and walking to Santiago De Compostela along the Arles route. I have the two CSJ guides and the Miam Miam Dodo guide also I have a few of the French IGN topo maps, the other two I'll have to pick up along the way. I'm an experienced long distance walker and will be carrying a tent to camp along the way. I'm very curious to know how well the route is waymarked?

Thanks.

I got back last week from a Menton-Toulouse mt. bike trip.

The route is fairly well marked. The absolute worst part is the first 10 km leaving Montpellier----construction, ugly busy.

There have been numerous revisions to the route. The FFRP guidebook , just released, has nice maps and had all the route changes.
