Hi, sorry to be redundantn but could not find the exact answer for this route. Most of these issues seem to deal with the Camino Frances.
Now that I am packing to leave in April for Lisbon, am wondering if I really need that (light weight ) sleeping bag, or will the sleeping sheet from Le Puy...
Bonjour, fellow pilgrims. I leave in the morning, starting for France. Worries and niggling what-ifs have fallen away and I'm rather floating on air.

I'm a little trepidatious as I think France will be more expensive than Spain ( I walked the Francés route...
I am turning 70 in September and want to walk from Vezelay to St Jean. ( Went from there to Finistierre 10 years ago). For that pilgrimage I had one of the CSJ booklets (UK) giving distances and albergues, and nothing more. Does anyone know of something similar for the French route? Preferably...
