I hope to do this section in June and prefer to stay as close to the coast as possible. Would you be able to share the route you took please @SFletcher as I am not very good with maps or planning routes.

I had the most amazing two weeks...
Thank you and what is the windy app?
I asked this question really to see if anyone had any reason to doubt the AccuWeather app as in the forecast they gave was wrong ?
I know I'm clutching at straws but it affects what to pack as well as everything else.
Thanks for reply 🙂
I'm arriving in St Jean on Friday and starting to walk the Napoleon route Saturday morning.
It's my second time to begin the Camino Frances and at Easter in 2016 I had to take the Valcaros route so planned a later start this time as the route should be open .
The problem is it's looks like there...
Hi Phil.
