Hi

I am looking for a cheap route to Spain - avoiding as many tolls as possible to keeping a bit of speed going.

I have had a play about on Via Michelin and so on, and am thinking that if I can stay toll free to Clermont Ferrand, I can pick up the toll free motorway there and then pay a few tolls to get into Spain.

So, toll free as far as Clermont Ferrand, I am looking at Calais - Boulogne - Rouen - Chartres - Orleans - N60 - N7 - Nevers - Moulins and then on to Clermont. Is anyone familiar with this route?

Thanks

Hi

Did you pay tolls from Beziers to Spain, or run toll free on the N9?

Can you hamer on a bit or are the raods a bit slow moving?

Thanks

Toll free on N9
good fast roads apart from when they go through villages , most big towns are by passed.
I am sure it is all down hill from clermond F to Millau bridge it seemed like it to me anyway.

Where are you going in Spain ?. You don't want to cross into Spain at La Junqera if you are going to Alicante or further south.

Hi

Nothing firm planned, but thinking of the Costas or somewhere.

Agree, if you are going further south (including Valencia & Alicante) go into Spain via Irun

Depends where you are going to and which route you mean.
The route via Clermont F is easy but quite hilly and will use more fuel than some other routes
