On arrival in Paris, get a taxi or take Metro Line 4, direction Mairie de Montrouge and go to Montparnasse Bienvenue.
Give yourself around 45 minutes for the transfer as there’s a bit of a walk from the metro to the station.
Your train will arrive at Lourdes station, a short hop from the town centre and the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes.
Best known as a site of pilgrimage, Lourdes is in the foothills of the Pyrénées, surrounded by stunning countryside with beautiful Lac de Lourdes as its centrepiece.
