Arrival
Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port
The Via Podiensis, also known as the Voie du Puy or GR®65, runs from Le Puy-en-Velay to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port over nearly 750 kilometres. It is one of the four French routes to Compostela and the most frequented: you will meet pilgrims of all nationalities, experienced hikers and first-timers alike. The path is well waymarked, very well served by accommodation, and accessible to anyone who prepares properly. Works in aeroplane mode to save battery — essential on long stages far from charging points.
