Via Podiensis
Entire route from Le Puy-en-Velay to St Jean Pied de Port
work in progress (photos & comments to be added)
Advice:
- Do NOT rely 100% on the red/white markers. Many other paths/routes use exactly the same colours!
- Do not blindly follow other walkers. Much of the route is extremely popular with other hikers, most of whom will be walking other routes.
- If walking between May and October be sure to book at least one night ahead. Many of the gites d'etapes tend to be block-booked by large groups, who also dominate the dormatories.
- If you have already walked the camino francis in Spain, please be aware thatheavier duty footware is required on this route. Many of the paths have large sharp stones.
