Wish to say how very helpful the Pilgrim office was in SJPP. We commenced our walk 1 April with fine weather, good path on alternative route. A tough day but made us stronger (our first test) but we reached the Monastery in Roncesvalles. A warm welcome as we came in from strong winds over the...
Hello fellow pilgrims. We’re behind you, Arrive SJPP on 01/4 + start 2/4 so we’ll be following in your foot prints.

What a start to the next chapter in our lives. I start from SJPP 02 April and the advice from the forum on expected weather conditions, clothing,hostels etc. etc. is so appreciated...
Wonderful to read your positivity after a few hurdles. I turn 65 in April while on my first Camino. Age is but a number so together Hazel and Ian you go at your pace.
Buen Camino
My comment isn’t advice but I am starting 2 April from SJPP. The forums have been heartwarming, reassuring and practical. I continue to read all the advice. For us ‘newbies’ we’ll learn a lot quickly and we too will become the new Pilgrims. Buen Camino
Hi there, I laughed and enjoyed your message as I am very much the same!! First time Pilgrim starting in SJPP Easter ‘18. I have read via the forum others comments about just being consistent in getting out and walking. Keep it up + we may see you along the path. Buen Camino
Thank you all for the valuable information. I am doing the CF in April and I had every hope to enter the Cathredal and see the Botafumeria. As you say, who knows the Spaniards may change the schedule. :)
