Looking for a way to Walk from Geneva to Arles (and then through to SdC)

G'day, My wife and I are planning our next walk, from Geneva to SdC starting in April 2020.

We have walked the Le Puy route to SJPdP before so we are keen to understand if there is an "alternate way" to walk from Geneva to Arles to pick up that way to continue west.

Apologize if this is wrong forum space. Thanks for any information.

Regards, Risky
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-

Yes, indeed! There is a well-marked route and necessary lodging info in the Amis Guides (http://www.amis-st-jacques.org/page_daccueil.php). You'll want the yellow guide for the section starting in Geneva, and then the blue guide for the connecting segment to Arles. I used the IphiGenie app for great GR-on-topo maps on the phone, as well as finding the evening lodgings.

Thanks MSPATH, that is the sort of way we are looking to walk as it is more direct to Arles and helps us to manage our Schengen Zone / 90 day challenge.
 
Thanks Kitsambler, we will get the relevant guides (yellow and blue) and gpx files.
