Hello all,
I am considering doing my first camino and the levante appeals to me for two main reasons: 1) It covers some diverse regions and gives the opportunity to experience "Cervantes''" Spain in a unique way 2) I get the impression that it allows for more solitude than the other more well trodden paths. As much as I would like to walk alone through this landscape, the thought of actually doing so makes me feel rather nervous from a safety point of view, especially given the stories that I have read about women being harassed on some of the other routes. I would be interested to hear your opinions on how safe you think this camino is for solo female travellers. How often, on average, is one likely to see another pilgrim or local?
Thanks in advance
