Estaing, Conques, Figeac, Cajard, Cahors, Montcuq, Moissac, Auvillar, La Romieu, Aire sur l'Adour, Navarrenx, St Palais, and Rocamadour if you do the GR6 variant. Actually the route has been walked for so long by so many they all have a meaning.
Buen camino
Some years ago I walked from Caen in Normandy to Sete on the mediterranean. I know I picked up the le Puy route as I walked through Rocamadour and Figeac amongst others you know. I drew a straight line between my start on the map and finish. Naturally I could not stick exactly to the line...

I have done both stretches twice. Yes Le Puy is dearer but much better value for money. I never had a problem sourcing lunch in France and it is right what others have said the average age of the walkers is much older than of the CF. None the less it is a lovely walk, and if the sun shines...
Hi I am thinking of walking from Carcassonne to SJPdP in 2020. Does anyone have experience of the best time, weather wise to walk please. I could go from May and am wondering if by June the weather is more likely to be dryer. I know this is a ''how long is a piece of string'' question but I...
Hi I too think the only issue will be Portomarim. The last time I did it I happened on 3 Spanish women taking photos. I said to one '' a mi no me gusta el Puente.'' She clearly understood as she took my arm and marched us down the middle of the road. In those circumstances you can close...
