    Dear pilgrims, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the following. I want to walk the Arles route from Montpellier. Will start in July 2018. As I am on a tight budget, my idea was to camp. Will I find camping spots in the way? How much does one pay for a night in a gite, generally? Thank you!

    Camping when campgrounds not open

    Hello. I'm a Canadian walking Le Puy next April and am hoping to camp but see that most places are not open until mid-May.

    Solo Camino - time scale and camping

    Good day kind reader, I've decided to undertake the Camino Francés at the end of March/beginning of April 2018.
