[QUOTE="sillydoll, post: 17031, member: 8"] In 2004 we started the Via Turonensis in Paris and got our first sello at Nortre Dame. We spent two days following the two walking itineraries in the CSJ's City Guide called 'Paris Pilgrim'. They are fascinating walks following the scallop shells and other St Jacques symbols and historical places - each lasting about 2 hours. After two days in Paris we walked to the outskirts and got a train to Orleans where we started our pilgrimage proper and walked all the way to Roncesvalles. The route is very flat with practically no way markers until you reach the south. There are very few pilgrim refuges – as we know them from the camino – so it can be a fairly costly route to walk. Three years ago there was quite a lot of road walking but we managed to stay off main highways by asking the locals for the 'petit rues'. The only time we 'cheated' was when we caught a train from Dax to Lourdes where we spent a day. On the way back we got off the train at Peyrehorade and walked to Bidache before continuing to Spain. We only saw three pilgrims, cyclists from Belgium who were getting the ferry across the Gironde, until we reached Ostabat. By the time we got to St Jean there were hundreds of pilgrims and our solitary journey was over. PS: We hired a car in Pamplona and drove across the camino frances to Lugo, staying over at a few places along the way. We then got a bus to Sarria and walked to Santiago from there. The pilgrim office registered us as starting from Paris – so we were part of the 24 pilgrims who started in Paris during the Holy Year.[/attachment] [/QUOTE]
