Help with trains

I'm really starting to panic a bit. I'm flying into Lyon in mid-June to start from Le Puy. Keep looking at the SNCF website for trains. Nothing shown. Help??

I will be walking the Le puy route starting end July and have the same question about getting from Lyon to Le Puy. There are supposedly several trains a day (read that in this forum and also found that on one of the train sites, but can`t remember which one, sorry), but on the sncf site (I went to two of them given in this thread) only the train at 12:06 is given. Can anyone explain this discrepancy? So, me too . . . help?? I am reassured by the comment that a reservation is not needed.

I don't know what you are doing to get the response with only one train.

SNCF site can be confusing. Sometimes it will send you to a site intended for sales to overseas customers. If you are not getting the sites as listed below try clearing the cookies from your browser. If there is ever a drop down list asking where you are tell them you are in France.

Here is what the website should look like:

SNCF I.webp

Click the 'billets & info trajets'

SNCF II.webp

Click the 'Horaires & Reservation'

SNCF III.webp

Enter 'Lyon Part-Dieu' (depart) and 'Le Puy-en-Velay' (arrivee) and date of travel.

Click 'Recherche'

That will render a schedule of several trains:

Hello! I’ve been browsing the forum and there’s plenty of info for baggage transfers from stage to stage, where you pick it up daily, give it back and move on, however what I’m after is a service...
