Chemin de Compostela - Pinet à St Thibéry sur Lo Camin Romieu
A walk along part of one of the ancient routes of pilgrimage to Compostela - A wayside spring that would have provided refreshment to the Pilgrims on their walk.
The chemin du Piémont pyrénéen brings pilgrims from the Mediterranean regions, passing through the Corbières, the Ariégeois, Comminges, Bigorre, and the pays des Gaves. North/South axes through the Pyrénées via the valleys of the Aure, Ossau and Aspe provide links from the col du Somport and Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. This route is little known and may be joined by leaving the Voie d'Arles at Montpellier towards Narbonne via Saint-Thibéry and Béziers (Via Domitia). The Chemin d'Arles or Via Aegidiana, the route from Saint-Gilles or Via Arletanensis / Via Tolosana takes it's names from the principal towns and shrines along the way. La Voie du Sud / Camin Romieu is also the route followed by pilgrims (known as Romieux) heading from Rome.
