GR®861 Via Garona
From Toulouse to St-Bertrand-de-Comminges (Haute-Garonne)
|
|
The Via Garona is an ancient pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, steeped in a rich cultural heritage. The towns and villages you will encounter, such as Portet-sur-Garonne and Saint-Julien-sur-Garonne, bear witness to a flourishing past where agriculture and river trade were at the heart of local life. Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges, classified among "The Most Beautiful Villages of France," is famous for its Romanesque cathedral, a masterpiece of architecture that attracts visitors from around the world. The Gallo-Roman remains in Rieux-Volvestre and the charming half-timbered houses in Martres-Tolosane add a medieval touch to your journey. Each stop along this hike on the GR®861 is an opportunity to discover historical monuments, ancient churches, and castles that tell the story of the region.
