A Transformative 8-Day Journey

Deepen Your Connection

Join us for a unique, 8-day walking journey along the breathtaking trails of the Camino de Santiago in the serene, southwest corner of France. This is not just a walk—it's an invitation to reconnect with your deepest self, nurture your spiritual life, and forge meaningful connections with like-minded people.

This journey blends moments of solo reflection with intimate group experiences. Whether you’re seeking personal and spiritual growth, a meaningful connection with nature, or a deeper trust in your inner guidance, this travel opportunity offers the space to::


  • Cultivate Self-Awareness & Inner Peace: Through guided reflection and mindfulness practices, you'll connect with your inner wisdom and explore your life’s path, paving your road ahead for greater joy.


  • Nurture Your Spiritual Journey: Open up and deepen your relationship with Spirit (however you define it) and embrace the sacredness of this time in nature. each step.


  • Return to Love: Learn and practice. Guided with questions and universal concepts, develop your relationship with yourself, your environment, and others -- all while using the natural beauty of The Camino as a backdrop for this profound personal growth.

An Overview of the walk

 

The Chemin du Puy is one of four historic pilgrimage routes through France that eventually merge with the famed Camino de Santiago in Spain. While the full Camino spans an epic 750 km (466 miles), our journey will cover the most breathtaking 115 km (71 miles) segment—from the medieval town of 

Aumont-Aubrac to Conques.


Each day, we’ll walk 14 to 26 km (8.5 miles to 16 miles), passing through charming medieval villages, the picturesque Lot Valley, and ancient places of worship. 


Our adventure culminates with two nights in Conques, home to the magnificent Abbey Church of Sainte-Foy—one of the most revered abbeys on the Camino, renowned for its relics and stunning Romanesque architecture.

The path we follow, known as The Via Podiensis, has been a major pilgrimage route since at least the 10th century and was even described in the 12th-century Codex Calixtinus, a medieval guidebook for pilgrims traveling to Santiago de Compostela. Along the way, we’ll encounter centuries-old monasteries, Romanesque churches, and UNESCO-listed sites, all rich with history and spiritual significance.


Like all Camino routes, the Via Podiensis was more than just a path for medieval pilgrims seeking penance, healing, and enlightenment—it was also a vital corridor for trade, cultural exchange, and the growth of thriving towns along its course.


With your bags transported for you, you’ll be free to fully immerse yourself in the stunning landscapes, rich history, and the soulful rhythm of the walk—all while savoring the finest regional French cuisine along the way.

Through walking meditation, reflection, and shared experiences, you’ll embark on a profound journey alongside fellow pilgrims.

Each morning, we’ll gather over breakfast to share a meal, connect, and receive a reflection to carry with us on the day’s walk. Throughout our eight days together, you’ll be guided through The Wisdom Way method, a transformative approach to cultivating clarity, connection, confidence, and joy.
