The Way of Le Puy (760Km) is the oldest and easily the most popular of the four traditional pilgrims routes in France. Also referred to as the GR65, it begins at Le Puy-en-Velay to bring you to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, the last step in France before starting the Camino Frances in Spain on route to Santiago de Compostela. The first non Hispanic pilgrim, The Puy's Bishop, Godescalc, walked this route in the year 951 and today 40 to 50,000 Pilgrims and Hikers are estimated to start the Way from Le Puy-en-Velay annually.
This guide brings you 2 Variant routes on the GR65 for those walking between Figeac and Cahors.
As with all of the Miam Miam Dodo guides it is entirely updated every year to describe where to eat, sleep and eat and at what price - for a 4km band along the length of the route. The maps are detailed and easy to read - being at a scale of 1cm to 375m.
Includes a glossary in 6 languages of the terms that appear in the guidebook.
