Pafayac reacted to Lindsay53's post in the thread Protocol: spending more than one night in an albergue with
Like.
My understanding is only one night and you must then move on, unless you are ill. If you want a rest day then a hotel is the answer. -
I have walked both routes and they do have many differences, some which are already mentioned above. I don't think both routes are really comparable, except possibly in the level of difficulty, although I thought the Le Puy was harder for me. The...

Pafayac replied to the thread Demographics of Le Puy.Many young pilgrims start walking on Podiensis, but it is so difficult that they become old within a few days. I have in my mind the example of this 25-years old guy. Reaching St Privat (the first step) he was looking like a 40-years old pilgrim...
