Santiago to Toulouse

[Errin]

Hi, my partner and I are doing the camino mid April. It will be only one part of a six month holiday for us. When we finish the Camino, we need to get from Santiago to Toulouse. We are hoping to do this by train. Is this possible? If so - does anyone have any suggestions on what the best way to achieve this would be?
Thanks for the advice in advance

Two viable routes:

Renfe train Santiago to Barcelona. SNCF from Barcelona to Toulouse (new very fast train Barcelona to Paris)

Renfe train Santiago to Irun/Hendaye. SNCF from Irun/Hendaye to Toulouse.

Thank you I'm liking the stop in Barcelona - might check that place out while there!

MADRID (AP) — A high-speed rail service linking Spain and France has been inaugurated that will cut the journey time between Barcelona and Paris by half.

Up until now the train journey between these two cities lasted some 12 hours, but the new tracks will enable passengers to complete it in just over six.

Spain's tourism statistics agency Frontur says travelers make 82 million trips between the two countries annually, mostly by car.

Spain's train operator RENFE said Sunday it hopes to lure some air-travel passengers.

The service, which opened Sunday, will also provide bullet trains to cities like Madrid, Marseille, Toulouse and Lyon.
