A path of encounters and landscapes

GR® 65 follows the Way of Le Puy towards Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle. It crosses in particular the Aubrac, the Lot valley, the causses and Gascogne, with stage towns such as Conques, Figeac, Cahors and Moissac.

Preparing without standardising

The trail's fame makes it easier to build a multi-day trip, but every season and every stage has its own realities. The content should point to up-to-date visitor information and never guarantee water, a bed or accommodation without local verification.

Plan your hike

  • The Agence française des chemins de Compostelle gathers resources to prepare the route: confirm services and bookings with local contacts.
