    Looking for a route from Genoa to the Camino de Santiago

    When thinking about how easy or difficult a route is, don't forget the cultural challenges. A walk from Genoa to Santiago would cross, at minimum, Italian, French, Catalan, and Spanish cultural zones. And in general, the more pilgrim traffic a path receives, the easier it is to navigate the...

    Rest Days on the Podiensis

    Easy stopping points 7-10 days from Le Puy?

    I'm planning to walk the Via Podiensis in a month or two, and my father may join me for the first 7-10 days of the chemin before he returns to the USA. So I would like to guide him to an easy exit point about a week into the walk. Considerations: We will probably walk 20-25km per day. My father...
