Jakobsweg - Via Tolosana

Four major historical pilgrimage routes lead through France towards Spain. The southernmost of these is the Via Tolosana, which runs from Arles through Toulouse to the Pyrenees. Azure blue skies, the scents of Provence, and secluded landscapes under the Mediterranean sun make this region a true place of longing – and yet, the Via Tolosana remains a hidden gem. The Rother hiking guide "Jakobsweg - Via Tolosana" describes the nearly 800-kilometer pilgrimage route in 34 stages. The route begins in the ancient Roman city of Arles on the edge of the Camargue, traverses the remote mountain world of the Cevennes, meanders along the Canal du Midi to Toulouse, and finally passes through the charming foothills of the Pyrenees up to the Col du Somport, where it meets the Spanish Camino. As a special bonus for nature and culture lovers, this Rother hiking guide provides additional information.
