    Pilgrim dinner time at Arthez de Bearn - Gite de la Boulangerie Brousse?

    I think I’m ok… thanks though! Train arrives at 1620 or so so I should roll up before 1830.

    Pilgrim dinner time at Arthez de Bearn - Gite de la Boulangerie Brousse?

    Hello all, I was hoping someone may know what time roughly the dinner is in Gite de la Boulangerie Brousse in Arthez de Bearn. I have asked via text and email, but no response yet. Is there a loose universal dinner time for some French gites, or will each gite differ? As I'm walking about 2...

    Best Toe Sock Liners for Hiking: Comparing Injini Coolmax and Nuwool Liners with Smartwool Merino Socks

    Pre-Camino Walk Options to SJPDP: GR 78 from Lourdes or GR 65 from Aire-sur-l'Adour?

    Thanks again for this. With your experience with Le Puy Way and if you were going to walk 5-7 days before St JPDP, where would you start from? I fly into Paris from Australia (24hr plus flight) and land at 7am and plan to catch the fast train and stay the rest of the day and night before...
