Depending on the local route, you could be very correct. In particular, there have been issues with the Line 6 and 6C buses because of sharing the city route, with all the requisite local stops the local residents use, with the airport route...
Yes I am one of those people who love to arrive in a tiny village early and sit in the peace and quiet of nothing to do. Not every day - but for at least a few days of my Camino.
My first Camino age 56 I had an open completion date so I just walked what I walked. My shortest day was 4 km and my longest was over 30 km on the way to Finistere. My average was 20 km per day. Even before leaving I knew I couldn’t do much...
I would not want to do 25k/day. I did the last 100 (was actually 120km). My sister & I spread it over 12 days! Had a place with a pool for 2 nights & did yoga at another. We slept in & because we booked ahead, didn’t have to rush. I will do...
My sweet spot is 12 to 16 km per day, give or take a few. If I'm feeling good longer, if not shorter. I don't follow the guide books with the prescribed stages. I like to stay in the less popular towns, villages and albergues. I'm 69, and that's...
Thanks to all who replied. In the end we just walked.. we realized that would take the same time as walk to bus stop+wait for bus+bus ride+walk to final destination 😄
