So helpful, Michelle! I have booked Gites de La Cabourne and La Conquise (which looks amazing) at your recommendation.
I'm a bit unclear as to where (which village) is best to stop for the night between Limogne-en-Quercy and Cahors. Any suggestions?
Greetings, all!
I'm a woman along who will be walking from Le Puy to Cahors this month and would love to hear any recommendations you have for favorite gites or chambres d'hòtes, ideally those that offer demi-pension. So grateful to hear about your favorites!!
Thanks for that clarification, Scott--indeed safety can be a different calculus for women than men.
I have basic French and am practicing as much as possible before I leave. Looking forward to improving it on the trek. My MM print is edition on order. I understand it's worth every ounce it weighs!
Wondering about everyone's favorite lodging in Le Puy, Espalion, Conques, and Cahors. All recommendations will be most welcome, gracious Camino community!
So helpful, thanks! May I ask what tent you brought and how much weight you're carrying? Also, do you travel with a sleeping bag? I've just brought a liner on the CF.
How wonderful to wake to these inspiring and helpful replies! Thank so much for the encouragement. I was feeling a bit trepidatious about safety in so much solitude, but am not at all now having read all of your accounts.
Does anyone have a particularly wonderful site or chambre d'hôte to...
Thanks so much for your thoughts, Kanga. I've walked the Frances twice and can always return to it if that seems the best course, but would love to be in France this time and experience the uniqueness of the Le Puy route. Sounds promising, and everyone's input helps!
