    Hello Lesbrass, Thank you for the links. The first one with the pdf map "vaut de l'or" - has the value of gold. I will certainly study to see if there is a possibility to follow partially the suggested walks and to jump from one to the other. Also the second one "the voie verte" is very...

    Camino Lemovicensis / section Vézelay - Limoges / sept-oct 2016

    Hello person who lives close to St.-Astier, St-Astier is the next stop after Périgueux. It seems the walk between d'Anesse-et-Beaulieu and St-Astier is maybe rather boring along the D3 - D41. As the walk is only 21,5 km, maybe there is a possibility to extend it over the hills (red arrows on...

    Hello Laurie and Purky, Thank you for your feedback. Yes indeed, the camino Lemovicensis and the camino Campaniensis (Rocroi at the Belgian border => Vézelay) are different then the Camino Frances. First of all, there are lesser pilgrims on the road. During Spring and Summer, you will meet...

    Some rain heading to Les Billanges. I don't think the walk in this wood was the official road but it was shorter and much nicer. Direction the highest point of the Via Lemovicensis at St Goussaud Une lanterne des morts à St Goussaud

    And now the most beautiful walk: Cluis till Crozant First the walk over an ancient railroad bridge Just before Gargilesse, I didn't follow the Via Lemovicensis, I didn't follow the GR654. I found a trail on my GPS along the river Gargilesse in a gorge. I took the risk to follow it because it...

    Camino Lemovicensis / section Vézelay - Limoges / sept-oct 2016

    After Augy Sur Aubois, the walk is very simple. Just follow the Canal de Berry... The problem with the canal was that the locks were constructed too small when they did the construction in the 19th century. Only 2,7 m wide. Just OK for small boats. Sometimes, it was possible to walk in the...

    Camino Lemovicensis / section Vézelay - Limoges / sept-oct 2016

    So I decided to walk till Nevers by following the GR654. I attached the recorded GPX track of my walk. It's about 33 km that can be reduced with +/- 1 km just before Parigny Les Vaux. Also I took a much simple way when crossing the A77 highway. I didn't take the tunnel but the bridge. Here are...
