    Reserve early to avoid disappointment!

    Many thanks to all of you who have commented on my post and my apologies for not having been able to answer sooner! A special apology to MassNative for not spelling out CH and GDE. When possible, I always contacted the CH or GDE directly - I avoid Booking.com as far as possible - but even so...

    Many thanks to all of you who have taken time to reply to my post and my apologies for not having been able to answer sooner! Your suggestions have been most helpful!

    What to read on the Voie du Puy?

    Can any of you recommend books in French or authors associated with the Voie du Puy, in particular the stretch between Le Puy and Cahors? A search on Google did not produce any results. I am thinking primarily about fiction but would not be adverse to reading books of history, geography...

    I have just finished reserving my accommodation for the 19 nights I hope to spend, God being willing, walking from Le Puy to Cahors via the Célé valley.

    Advice on walking Le Puy to Cahors in April

    Thank you all for taking time to share your experience and advice with me! If I have not reacted sooner, it is because I wanted to get my ideas straight before replying.

    Advice on walking Le Puy to Cahors in April

    God permitting, I plan to travel to Le Puy on Saturday 13 April, walk to Cahors (via the Célé variant) and on Tuesday 30 April take the train to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, to continue along the Camino francés. I have walked many of the Caminos in Spain but this will be my first walk in France and...

    Accommodations and Services on the Le Puy Route

    Allow me to add my congratulations and thanks for the impressive resource you have made available! However, at first sight, consulting the spreadsheet on my mobile phone when on the Camino will not be very user-friendly. Even on my desktop computer navigating the sheet is not easy - I cannot...
