Chemin du Puy · Stage 28 of 29

Aroue to Ostabat

The Tours, Vézelay and Le Puy routes meet at the Gibraltar stone, about 4.3 miles before Ostabat, so from here on you share beds with more walkers. Harambeltz, 2.2 miles before the village, has a gîte beside the Saint-Nicolas chapel, open 1 March to 30 November.
