    Wet credential

    The same thing happened to me when I started in Le Puy. After my credential dried I put it in a small plastic bag to protect it and headed on. They didn’t even look at that in Santiago.

    Worrying Trend

    El llar is no longer there. Very sad. There is a new owner with new name. More expensive, not as good and absolutely no atmosphere. I was told by a local that the closing of El Llar was an ugly affair ( my translation). Made me sad.

    Le Puy or Norte

    Hi Tom, We did the Le Puy to Santiago last year and the whole thing was fantastic. But my favorite part was the Le Puy to St Jean. Not as many people, fabulous food and wonderful places to stay. It is not an easy walk but well worth it. Haven't done the Norte so can't speak to that. Have a...

    Looking for a walking partner from Le Puy in 2015

    Hello, I am hoping walk from Le Puy in 2015 but don't know if it is safe for a woman to walk alone since this route is not as heavily traveled. I am looking for someone to accompany me starting in the spring.
