    Suggestions for walks in France accessible by bus or train

    My wife and myself followed the route "Dieppe - Rouen" what is marked as a GR and a camino. This way follows a traintrack, so you can easy plan how to get back to accomodation. From Rouen the way leads to Chartres. https://www.cheminscompostelle76.com/

    How do I get from Charles De Gaulle airport in Paris to the Montparnasse train station ?

    Can you attend mass and pilgrim blessing in Sahagun if not staying at Albergue de la Santa Cruz?
