      andycohn reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread Aragon government plan to build albergue at Somport with Like Like.
      Quite a few articles on local news pages in the past 24 hours about the Aragon provincial government's announcement that it intends to build an albergue at Somport. No specific details on timescale for the project or the building itself. Part of...

      andycohn reacted to BlackRocker57's post in the thread GR 65 route/trail changes in direction? with Like Like.
      As of earlier this year the path out of Le Puy-en-Velay [at the very start of the Via Podiensis] will also start to change in an effort by the mairie to make the Way safer ... I understand that the first stage of this project is in the process of...

      andycohn reacted to Michelle_McA's post in the thread GR 65 route/trail changes in direction? with Like Like.
      I’m going to get my Michelin guide from 2014 and compare it to my Michelin guide from 2024. Heading into Aubrac I am recognizing the same old routes but I will say from Le Puy to I think Aubrac is where I noticed the most changes so I will do a...

      andycohn reacted to timr's post in the thread Camino Verde trail conditions? with Like Like.
      It is a long time since I was there, but the (very simple) accommodation - shared dormitories, was extensive. Gronze today lists 98 places. You cannot get in (or get out) between something like 2pm and 4pm. I don't think you should have trouble...

      andycohn reacted to DoughnutANZ's post in the thread vodafone sim purchase with Like Like.
      How are you getting to SJPdP? St. Jean is in France and Vodafone don't operate directly in France (although your Vodafone SIM will work in France if correctly set up for roaming). That is why people are suggesting that you purchase your SIM...

      andycohn reacted to Kitsambler's post in the thread GR 65 route/trail changes in direction? with Like Like.
      My remarks are based on personal observations from the 2010-2011 period, which is when I walked the Le Puy. At that time, the re-routing phenomenon was a topic of considerable discussion among fellow (French) walkers, and I distinctly recall two...

      andycohn reacted to BlackRocker57's post in the thread GR 65 route/trail changes in direction? with Like Like.
      Very unusual for this to happen [rerouting due to newly-opened gîte] ... the trails and the waymarking is maintained by the local volunteer members of the FFRP [hiking federation of France] and its various divisions ... involvement of the local...

      andycohn reacted to Kitsambler's post in the thread GR 65 route/trail changes in direction? with Like Like.
      Yes, sections do get rerouted from year to year. Sometimes, the on-the-ground signage doesn't quite catch up (or the old ones dont disappear when the new ones get posted). Usually this reroute is because of some new gite that's just opened up...

      andycohn reacted to jungleboy's post in the thread Magna Via Francigena - April 2024 with Like Like.
      I somehow managed to walk 18km on my rest day in Agrigento! I went to the Valley of the Temples in the late afternoon and even though it’s the third time I’ve been there, it is still a breathtaking place, and I got to experience sunset there for...
