Walking from Le Puy to St Jean Pied de Port in Summer 2018
Totally agree with you regarding iPhiGenie. We walked the route in 2017 and found it absolutely invaluable- TimH

Conques to Moissac: May or June?
We walked this section in May 2017. It was wonderful. We did book our accommodation a few days to a week ahead. Some places were full but we got by OK , although on one occasion we had to catch a taxi to a place back where we had been and then forward to where we had walked to. Yes mainly...- TimH

To book or not to book!
We started late April and we generally booked 1 to 3 days ahead. In some instances there was plenty of room when we arrived, but in others there was not a soars bed left and booking had been essential. Accommodation can be very limited on some stages with few options and, if you sense this...- TimH

Miam Miam DoDo in English
There is also the Guide to the Via Podiensensis, another name for the route, in English from Pilrimage Publications. Available as an ebook or hard copy. Not as up to date as a 2019 Miam Miam but we found it very useful for accommodation and very rarely used our Miam Miam. For maps the French...- TimH

Starting from Le Puy April 5. Is this advisable?
We did Le Puy to Pamplona starting mid April 2017. It was FANTASTIC! Yes we had some snow falling on 5-6 days and one heavy blizzard in the Albrac. You just have to be sensible and stop for a day if need be. We generally had wonderful weather for walking, no worries about accommodation...- TimH

Walking Le Puy route in May 2019
In terms of guide books we used the English language Lightfoot Guide to the Via Podiensis from Pilgrimage Publications. I had the electronic version on my phone. The other thing we found VERY useful is the French emapping application iPhiGenie which shows all walking routes in France over a...- TimH

Where can I pick up a credential
The shop in the Cathedral at Le Puy has credentials and it is always nice to start a Camino with a cathedral sello. There is a pilgrim's mass each morning at 7:30 I think with a Pilgrim blessing at the end of the mass in front if a statue of St James. Worth attending even if you are not religious.- TimH

Passport
Hi Mrs Mac We are from Sydney and walked the Le Puy walk in April May this year then did the first week of the Camino Norte. We speak no functional French but it was fine. While we thought the Frances was a fantastic walk, the Le Puy route was even better. Two things that we found invaluable...- TimH
