Introduction
This more remote and isolated camino is also maintained as the GR653 and goes by many names. I will use Voie d'Arles as my name of choice as I'll be walking from Arles in the south of France though Via Tolosana is common or variations on "Voie" such as Chemin d'Arles. Of course once you get into the region of Aragoné in Spain the way is called the Camino Aragonés. Voie d'Arles is on the spine of my guidebook. Roughly speaking the route starts in Arles, through Montpellier, Toulouse and Oloron-Ste-Marie, then over the Pyrenees at the col de Somport to Jaca in Spain then finishing in Puenta la Reina just south of Pamplona by which time it has joined up with our old friend the Camino Francés. As well as the Miam Miam Dodo guidebook I am using some other key resources. The Confraternity of St James in London has excellent route overviews and the kind of summary advice that can get lost in forums and blogs. https://www.csj.org.uk/chemin-arles There a...
