I have good news for you: on that budget, you can live like a prince! I averaged about 35E per night, demi-pension, and would allow about another 5E for picnic lunch supplies. So, 40E daily on average. Your train in and out, and any days of pack transport, would be additional. I stayed in private gites mostly, an occasional chambre d'hote, the odd small hotel, and in the municipal twice. Lodging details are in the blog.
me tooHi Kitsambler - just in the middle of reading your blog and I am loving it Thank you! x
Yes, I have similar concerns, as I'm on a budget as well. I'm a bit shocked at the prices now I'm starting to book (I'm heading off in two weeks); it's obviously not going to be anywhere near as cheap as the camino Frances.I just read your comment regarding your budget on the Le Puy route. I too hope to walk the full route this coming summer and would have to budget somewhat. You offered your list of expenses so I was wondering if I could receive it to get some idea of what I might expect, especially for accommodation. I walked the Frances and Finisterre routes and was very happy staying at the usual mix of albergues along the way. My email is birnbaumclara@hotmail.com. Thanks so much.
Very true!!!Yes, I have similar concerns, as I'm on a budget as well. I'm a bit shocked at the prices now I'm starting to book (I'm heading off in two weeks); it's obviously not going to be anywhere near as cheap as the camino Frances.
Hi all,
I'm thinking of allocating myself 60 Euros a day. Will this be enough for food and accommodation?
Merci

Walking the Le Puy route is "very expensive" only compared to walking the Camino Frances in Spain. The Le Puy route is less expensive than Germany, and much less expensive than Switzerland. Walking the Le Puy route is also significantly less expensive than a stay in Paris. So, costs are relative. There are a variety of lodging options, at various price points. You have to choose what fits your own needs.France route is very expensive.
