    Start in Turin/Torino?

    Thanks, David! I saw that the map uou shared has a way out of Turin. Thx so much. I've decided to take the locals advice and go via train to Susa. That way I'll skip the industrial urban walking and make time to walk to a side trip: Abbey Novelsco. Hopefully they will have a bunk for me. I will...

    Start in Turin/Torino?

    Thanks for the info. I am going west and have the French 'Frando' publication on La Via Domitia but it doesn't start til I get to the French border. Locals have told me that the best thing to do is take the train to Susa, and the route will be better marked there. Got my first stamp at the...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Hello all, When I walked Lourdes to SJPP, I had only a list (in French) of albergues and maps that I printed from a French website. I do not believe that there are any websites in English for this route. The guide book that I wrote includes those same color maps and places that I recommend to...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    In 2015, I spent the night is Paris at a convent, and then the next day took a plane to Lourdes via Air France from Orly. I recommend that you spend a full day in Lourdes before you walk out. That way you can experience the baths. After drinking the water, I got no blisters or had no foot...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    I walked from Lourdes to SJPP in 2015. There is a pilgrim albergue in Lourdes. I recommend spending a full day in Lourdes before you walk out so you can experience the bathes. I flew from Paris to Lourdes airport. I wrote a Spiritual and Walking guide for Christians like you that are thinking...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Thanks for the website, I had not seen that website before. I walked ALMOST the same itinerary as you did in May 2015. The only change was I spent 1/2 day in Lourdes to go to the baths, so only walked 1/2 day that afternoon to Betharram. Was very nice there and will recommend doing that in my...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Hola FatmaG, I couldn't find your notes that you mentioned. Would you be so kind as to email them to me? Or it looks like you can upload a file here. I am doing research for my book, and I think they will help. Thanks, Stacey wittigwriter (a) gmail.com.

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Hi RicheyBoy, I walked Lourdes to SJPP in May 2015. I got my accommodation info at http://www.aucoeurduchemin.org/spip/spip.php?rubrique385 Since there is little info in English, I am writing my second volume of spiritual and walking guides called "Spiritual & Walking Guide: Lourdes to St Jean...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Hello Galawun, I am 60 and walked Lourdes to SJPP in May 2015. I have not found much info in English and that is why I am writing the book "Spiritual & Walking Guide: Lourdes to St Jean Pied de Port." I used maps and information found at Au Coeur du Chemin, a French Camino organization, for my...

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    I walked Lourdes to SJPP in May 2015. I started my Camino there because I wanted a more rustic experience without a lot of pilgrims like my earlier Camino Frances experiences. I got what I was looking for on the GR78! I stayed at many of the places listed in the post above. I am currently...
