    Shortest Pilgrim Accommodation Route on Via Gebennensis (GR65) from Geneva to France

    Thanks for that info. I've sent a message to the Cathedral St Pierre but haven't heard back yet. I'll contact the Geneva Tourist Office to see if they will put the credential aside for our pickup in April.

    Yes thanks, we have a printout of the route but it doesn't have the accommodation options. We plan to wing it but just working out the distance for the first night.

    Vegetarian foods in non vegetarian restaurants

    We are vegan (not vegetarian, so no animal products) and have walked 9 different Caminos since 2015 and never had a problem getting enough nutritious food. We buy fresh fruit and veg and eat along the way so rarely need to go out to restaurants. However, when we found a restaurant that served...

    Le Puy musings and plannings....

    Hi Julesy, welcome to the wonderful world of Caminos! Agree with all the other comments, but have a couple of tips. Best to fly into Paris and take the train from there. If you keep your pack light you shouldn't need to have it transferred. We keep ours between 6-8kg. The phone, get an Orange...

    Hi Karl, thanks for your advice. We do have Gronze set up thru Chrome, but like to use MMDD to journal in as we go along. We should hear from CSJ this week if they have a copy for us.

    Planning to walk the Caminos Arles, Aragonès & Le Puy

    Thanks for your input, we've decided to start in Montpellier as we've lived in the Arles-Montpellier region in a past life (loved it at the time especially the Camargue) but we have time restraints for what we want to do so shortening the Arles Route accordingly. Lots of people say that it's...

    Where is the best place to access the Canal du Midi from the Arles Route?

    Thanks for your info :) . We've decided to just catch the Canal entering Toulouse. We lived (and worked) on the canal from Sete to Toulouse in a past life (!) so really just want to walk the canal in part while on the Arles Route for nostalgia :) .
