Help with trains

I'm really starting to panic a bit. I'm flying into Lyon in mid-June to start from Le Puy. Keep looking at the SNCF website for trains. Nothing shown. Help??

I will be walking the Le puy route starting end July and have the same question about getting from Lyon to Le Puy. There are supposedly several trains a day (read that in this forum and also found that on one of the train sites, but can`t remember which one, sorry), but on the sncf site (I went to two of them given in this thread) only the train at 12:06 is given. Can anyone explain this discrepancy? So, me too . . . help?? I am reassured by the comment that a reservation is not needed.

I don't know what you are doing to get the response with only one train.

SNCF site can be confusing. Sometimes it will send you to a site intended for sales to overseas customers. If you are not getting the sites as listed below try clearing the cookies from your browser. If there is ever a drop down list asking where you are tell them you are in France.

Here is what the website should look like:

SNCF I.JPG

Click the 'billets & info trajets'

SNCF II.JPG

Click the 'Horaires & Reservation'

SNCF III.JPG

Enter 'Lyon Part-Dieu' (depart) and 'Le Puy-en-Velay' (arrivee) and date of travel.

Click 'Recherche'

That will render a schedule of several trains:
