Lourdes, France to Someplace ~100 km from Santiago (Sarria?)

[mikailsj]

Hi,

I've been trying to find a way to get to a starting place to begin the 100 km journey to Santiago. I really would like to visit Lourdes, but I have been unsuccessful in finding a way to Sarria from Lourdes. Anyone have any suggestion on how to get to the area? I really don't want to backtrack back to Paris to get a flight out to Santiago and then bus to Sarria.

Thank you!

There are trains from Lourdes to Bayonne several times a day. From Bayonne you go to Hendaye/Irun, then on to Sarria via Lugo or Monforte de Lemos.

I have the same dilemma, trying to get to Sarria from Lourdes with a more straight way than changing trains and busses many times. I am exploring going to Tourouse and flying to Santiago and back track to Sarria; not really a good option, I would appreciate any comments for a better way as well.
thank you
