Stage
Ease of walking: Moderate with country tracks and occasional lane walking; some short climbs on limestone terrain.
After leaving Conques the route heads southwest through rural Quercy to reach the market town of Figeac, known for its medieval center and Champollion museum. The stage opens back into rolling limestone countryside and cultivated fields.
Karstic plateaus, agricultural mosaics and scattered oak woods between villages.
Pilgrims will find drinking water fountains (fuentes), public taps and springs in most villages and at points along the way. In summer and on remote stretches, carry enough water between stops as gaps can be long.
