The Spirit of Ultreia Via Podiensis
The name “Ultreïa” embodies the idea of surpassing oneself. But on this motorcycle journey, this overcoming evokes a quiet elegance, the serenity of the landscapes and the depth of the human experience.
In accordance with the charter of Santiago de Compostela by motorbike produced by MAP - Moto Auvergne Plaisir and Relais Motards, your role as a motorcyclist on the Ultreïa Via Podiensis must be marked with respect and courtesy. You will slow down considerably as you pass other pilgrims, greeting them with a simplicity that honors their own journey. The discussions, smiles and meals shared with them will constitute the milestones of an experience where the motorcycle is a means of peaceful exploration.
DAY4
Limogne-en-Quercy / Manciet - 286 km
Calmly, you will cross the villages, lingering on the landscapes and places of visit with the kindness of a pilgrim in search of a deep connection with his environment. Long breaks will become special moments to exchange, learn and create lasting memories.
Come with us, not for a frantic race, but for an odyssey where every kilometer counts, not for speed, but for the value of each moment.
DAY5
Manciet / St-Jean-Pied-de-Port - 232 km
After Ultreïa Via Podiensis towards Santiago de Compostela
Ultreïa Via Podiensis gives you the freedom to choose your own adventure after St Jean-Pied-de-Port. Aware of the imperatives to obtain the Compostela, MAP - Moto Auvergne Plaisir deliberately decided to conclude this motorcycle trip in St Jean-Pied-de-Port. This will allow bikers to decide whether they wish to continue their quest on foot, on horseback or by bike to reach the required distances and obtain the precious certificate, the Compostela, thanks to the Crédencial.
DAY6
Loop in St-Jean-Pied-de-Port - 220 km
What is Compostela
La Compostela is a certificate issued to pilgrims who have completed the pilgrimage to the shrine of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. To obtain the Compostela, the pilgrim must have traveled at least the last 100 km on foot or on horseback, or the last 200 km by bike, towards Santiago de Compostela. It is also necessary to present a stamped Crédencial, attesting to the last steps carried out in this way.
Day7
St-Jean-Pied-de-Port
What is the Crédencial
The Crédencial, also called the pilgrim's notebook, is a personal document in which the pilgrim collects stamps at each stage of his journey to Santiago de Compostela. These stamps can be obtained at places such as churches, inns, tourist offices, and other significant locations along the way.
If you wish, MAP - Moto Auvergne Plaisir will assist you in collecting your Crédencial before leaving Puy en Velay. This pilgrim's notebook will be ready to be stamped throughout your motorcycle journey, allowing you to document your adventure in an authentic way.
