My Camino in France: A Million Steps from Le Puy to St Jean Kindle Edition

by Maggie Ramsay (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions
Take a walk through the South of France. A six-week walk, in fact, following a medieval pilgrimage trail, part of the world-famous Camino de Santiago. Four Australians set out from Le-Puy-en-Velay, heading for Spain. The path, through some of the most beautiful villages in France is a feast of spectacular scenery and breathtaking architecture. Of course, walking off the beaten track and in all weathers makes for a truckload of funnny, fascinating and unexpected encounters. Every day brings experiences that ricochet from the sublime to the ridiculous. It is immensely entertaining, endlessly interesting. And you can experience it all from the comfort of your armchair.

She gives a colorful description of the French Camino and life on the trail. Maggie's style is easy going and fun to read. She captures the spirit of why people become pilgrims. I read another description of this hike that left me apprehensive but this account actually makes me want to do the hike! I liked having descriptions of the gites in a section for quick reference. This book is a good read and I highly recommend it.

Heaving done the Camino from St. Jean pied de port to Santiago, the stories Maggie tells bring back such great memories of the 7 weeks we spent walking. I will be doing the North coastal route this summer and hopefully parts of the Italian Camino as well. Thank you Maggie for the great stories.

This travelogue is a good source of information for those who wish to travel the French Camino. It is well written and entertaining and for that reason a good choice even for those who don’t have the opportunity or desire to make the walk themselves and are looking to live vicariously through stories of others.

very economical prose that manages to capture the essence of their journey through France. Found it funny and helpful. We plan on walking from Le Puy to Moissac in 2021 having walked the Norte /Primitivo in 2016.

Liked how the author captured the need for pilgrims to accept rather than to expect.

We have travelled extensively in France, though not on foot. We are also Australian and I enjoyed following as the author travelled through areas we have visited and stayed in over several trips. We have climbed the towers at La Romieu among other places. It is always pleasant to see a different perspective, and it brought back memories of these places. We love aligot!! Thanks for reminding me how much we love France, but I think we will stay with driving.

I read this book in early 2016 when we were planning to walk Le Chemin du Puy (the Puy Way) ourselves. I found it very useful in terms of the practical information on places to stay and food. It gave me a good idea of what to expect, and answered some of the questions I had about the walk. I also felt it gave a good general background to what the walk is like including some historical information. It was well written and interesting to read. I would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about doing this walk. We did the walk in Spring 2016 and found it to be both a very good walking experience and also a good culinary experience too.

The author's second Camino walk, this time with friends. The writing lacks spontaneity, irreverence and humour, each if which I like. But if you prefer a more conservative voice, this might be good for you. The photography is nice.
