The route from Mayenne to Mont corresponds to the last stages of the "Grand
Chemin montois" or "Chemin de Tours au Mont" via Le Mans and Mayenne. It is one of three "shared routes", signposted from Compostela to Mont and vice versa, and followed locally by jacobean associations friendly to the areas they cross.
This walk from Mayenne to Mont-Saint-Michel is one of the events being organised to mark the 25th anniversary of the inclusion of Mont-Saint-Michel in the UNESCO list of the French Way of St James. It is organised in collaboration with "Compostelle 53 et autres chemins".
Pilgrims from all over the Haut-Maine region of Mayenne made their way to the Mont and left their mark on the collective memory of this little-known region, rich in history. Follow in their footsteps and become a miquelot!
Anyone can take part in one or more days of walking. However, prior registration is required.
The prices include the supervision for each day, the visits and the return by bus to the starting point of the day. All walkers must bring their own picnic. Association members benefit from a preferential rate. A list of accommodation addresses close to each stage is available so that walkers can book the accommodation of their choice directly and join the group for all or part of the route from Mayenne to Mont Blanc.
