Our Story
So far

For a long time
For years, I watched the pilgrims pass by.
I was born in Saugues, on the GR65. From an early age, I had one certainty: one day, I would walk it all.
Then, one day, I joined them.
Setting out on foot from Le Puy-en-Velay, I discovered the very particular encounters that take place along the Way — connections made, lost and sometimes found again as the stages unfold.
Jake doesn’t walk, but he accompanied me in his own way and met some of my fellow pilgrims along the way.
When our project began to take shape, we didn’t simply choose to settle on the Way: we chose to invite it into our home.
Today, it is our turn to open the door to those who arrive.


And Athéla?
She’s mostly just shy, but you may come across her during your stay. And yes, she is indeed the one who gave Les Chambres d’Athéla their name.
Why Athéla? We’ll tell you the story in person, if you’d like.
