All roads lead to Santiago or Rome, which one to choose?

Updated: Jul 3, 2021



My Saint-James way does not take the traditional ways and passes by many variations and other detours which have from my point of view a historical and / or religious interest. I try to walk modestly in the footsteps and rhythm of the pilgrims of the Middle Ages.


Like me, do you like to take side roads? If yes, which ones ?

What were the stages that marked you the most in France, Spain, Portugal or elsewhere?


In this forum, also come and share your knowledge and experiences on the various pilgrimage routes (other than that of Santiago de Compostela), which exist today throughout the world but which are still little frequented.


Tell us about your starting plans (or dreams) (short, medium, long term) from Italy, Japan, Korea, Scotland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Sardinia, Canada , Norway, Mexico, ... and much more ...


Freely ask your questions to subscribed members of our forum to learn more about the pilgrimage routes less known to the general public.


To those who are still wondering which new paths to take, give them some avenues for answers and reflection :


- by telling your adventures, your personal story, by making us want to follow in your footsteps !!!

- tell us if you have already created a blog, a website, if we can reach you on social networks,

- show us your best photos and videos, your real "life-wise" ...


This forum is ours, it is addressed to pilgrims, hikers, adventurers, walkers or quite simply to people who have not yet dared to take the first step ...


Do not hesitate to disseminate the existence of this sharing, discussion and information group to as many people as possible. It will be our common "suggestion box", our "To-Do List" as the English would say or more poetically "our list of dreams to be accomplished towards infinity and beyond" (to use the expression of a famous fictional character :-).


To go further, take a first look at our community site:


Only subscribed members will be able to post their publications directly on this forum, ask questions or add their opinions and comments.


So, subscribe to our blog and forum if you want to talk to us about your next hiking projects, your personal experience and the different ways to travel the pilgrimage routes of France and Navarre.


Otherwise, you can also send us your article proposal (text + photos + videos + internet links + contact) directly by email to the following address: compostelle.autrement@gmail.com so that your information is distributed more widely on our website.


We are all explorers of ourselves, in the end the path will always be the destination ...


BUEN CAMINO !!!

Lionel de Compostelle
