Onderwerp: Questions about the refuges in the French side



Hi:

As the time for my trip is approaching, I am reading more and more and I am
having more and more questions fro everybody. I hope you can forgive me if I
ask things you have already answered through this server.

When I decided to , finally, go to Compostela, I thought that the perfect
place to start would be Paris: It si a city I am in love with and I would
have the chance to go to many interesting places I still haven't been to.

But reading the info in many websites I ended up realizing it is a path far
too full with cars and bicycles and it is pretty dangerous and also not as
picturesque as the other 4.

So until today I planned to leave in Vezelay. But reading the diary of a guy
who did it in March-April 1996 (it was winter, of course it was harder than
in summer) I start having serious doubts about it, as it it seems I am not
going to find as much nature and cultural sites as expected. I don't know if
it is just his account of his trip or the Via Lemovicense on its own what is
boring. I am starting to consider taking the Via Podiensis, starting in Le
Puy, because even when the road seems to be much shorter, I've read is the
nicest one in terms of nature and there are several walking trails through
the forest.

I was also considering starting in Vezelay and look for a way toward the
southeast, to have like a second start in Le Puy, after leaving Limoges. Of
course that would had a fair amount of Km to our road and maybe we wont
finish it before July 25th .

I haven't still gotten any guide and I have seen so much bibliography that I
am still not sure about what to get. I need a guide that can help me mostly
to know what I can expect to find in each way, I know all of them must be
very interesting but I want to start by the one that has involves more
"adventure' just to express it some way.

Any piece of advise?

On the other hand is that I have found several descriptions about the
refuges along the way in the Spain, BUT NOT SITE DESCRIBING ANY IN THE
FRENCH SIDE. Does it mean that I haven't been looking correctly or that
there aren't actually refuges along the way in France? I read in this guy
diary that he was looking for campsites or sleeping in hotels, the second
one is something that my friends from Argentina, cause to the crisis aren't
going to be able to afford at all. Anyone knows anything about it? Any idea
about the costs of the cheapest lodging

Thank you very much

Lia
