2014 did Frances and plan to Le Puy in 2023
I’m doing Cele Variant but taking an overnight visit from Figeac by bus to Racamadour to explore it. Also, would it be worth the same as Rocamadour to take a bus from Figeac to Cajarc and explore it, as well?
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.

Well, Cajarc, is a small pleasant town without any specific pretentions: historical center with small streets and church. Writer Françoise Sagan lived there as a youngster, and President Pompidou and the comedian Coluche had a second residence in the neighborhood.
 
Cajarc, is a small pleasant town

Françoise Sagan (born Françoise Delphine Quoirez) is buried near Cajarc, in the village of Seuzac, 4 km to the west, and off-piste.
Other than that, frankly, there isn't much of interest. It's a nice town to walk to, as you approach it from the top of the cliffs on the northern side of the river Lot, giving you a panoramic view of the town which, as @fransw says is a small pleasant town without any specific pretensions. Good for a stopover, but not worth the detour.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I'm starting the Le Puy in early July hopefully. In my efforts to communicate with the gite owners, I am using email as my French is almost non existent. I'm getting lots of replies outlining...
Sorry I have been too tired to post anything. Here is a very brief summary and a few pics. Le Puy to Figeac - 250 km approx - 14 days - average 17.8 km per day (top speed for me 😂) Beautiful...
I am trying to find a Mobile App that can help me find trails from Le puy Valley to Cahors. Would appreciate good advice and guidance.
