'17th century mansion'       Français English

17th-century manor house accommodating up to 25 guests (10 rooms with 2, 3, or 4 single and double beds). L'Arche d'Yvann is ideally located halfway between Espalion and Conques, on the historic trail of the Camino de Santiago.

Espalion -> Campuac 24 km -- Campuac -> Conques : 24km


Why choose the L'Arche d'Yvann stopover?

The gite is located on the historic path, which initially connected Estaing to Campuac and then Golinhac, before the official GR®65 route was modified.

💡 Hikers' tip when leaving Estaing:

To reach us in Campuac, you have two excellent options depending on what you are looking for:

Option 1: The GR®6 (The most beautiful route)

By taking the GR®6 directly from Estaing, the distance remains equivalent to the official route, but you enjoy a much more pleasant path:

  • A much higher proportion of dirt trails and significantly less asphalt (unlike the GR®65).
  • A magnificent and breathtaking panoramic view over the village of Estaing right from the start.

Option 2: The shortcut via Fonteilles (The shortest route)

If you prefer to start on the official GR®65 route, you can branch off and cut towards Campuac at Fonteilles to switch over to the GR®6. Switching from one GR trail to the other allows you to benefit from a 4 km shortcut on your overall day walk.
