If you live outside the euro zone, I would open a Wise bank account and create a euro balance in it. Then you’ll have small fees to convert your currency into euros through Wise and then no currency conversion fees at ATMs on the camino.
Hello pilgrims,
I have unfortunately hurt my knee(s) on the second day of walking from Porto. I pushed through some more kilometers, but I had to take a break in Marinhas. I tried everything to make the situation better, but since my flight is...
@Cotopaxi , welcome to the forum.
Not sure who told you that the Inglés was the least popular route, but they were very, very wrong. Statistically it's actually the fourth most popular, it even beats out the Primitivo and the Norte in terms of...
@jungleboy Nick, I have only just now noticed your "mystery camino" in Sicily you mentioned before. It looks to be another fabulous, stellar write-up with photos and can't wait to read it all tonight after getting settled "somewhere" in Requejo.🙄...
Thanks, Nick (yet again) for the heads--ups and the fantastic descriptions. A good walk for us today to Prizzi. Even with the kick-ass ascents, it felt like a piece of cake after the mud into Corleone. Almost a dozen pilgrims tonight at...

From what pilgrims report as they come into Santiago, the Inglés is getting busier now, even in April, and by May it should have more walkers. So you won't be too isolated or alone.
I walked the Inglés solo in July 2017. It was quieter back...
No need to worry about numbers on the Inglés in my opinion. It’s quite busy and not at all the least popular route, so you will find people to walk with. There is even a bed race in one or two towns.
Hi everyone,
I am a 30 y.o. female travelling solo. Planning to walk Camino Ingles in May, but since it's the least popular route I'm a bit worried in terms of how safe it is. I walked Frances from Ponferrada and Portugues from Porto, and both...
We arrived in Porto by train from Lisbon yesterday afternoon. Long haul from Australia via Singapore, Milan and Madrid departed April 23. Our first encounter with other pilgrams was when 3 seperate lone first timers saw our Camino patches on our...
