finding the WAY in San Sebastian

Hola! I'll be arriving to Irun around 10:30pm on June 30th after a looooooooong day of travel. I still hope that enough adrenaline will kick in to energize my walk to SS the next day. I may even walk across the bridge into France to get a stamp-- that may seem silly, so I'll see! Anyway, I am...

Staging on Norte/Primitivo (Hospitales)

Thank you both for the wonderful responses! I do know about Gronze and I speak/read Spanish, so that will be helpful! I have a feeling this will all make more sense to me when I'm actually walking. My aim is to do about 5km per hour depending on the elevation gain, terrain, etc. I am an avid...

Staging on Norte/Primitivo (Hospitales)

Hi! I know the etapas or stages are clearly defined, but I am wondering how long the Norte/Primitivo (and if you do hospitales) route would take if you simply followed the stages. I can't control the unexpected, but my hope is to finish the entire route in about 32 days. With that said, I wonder...

Camping on Camino del norte and booking hostels

I am also contemplating bringing a tent on the Norte-- Just wonder how far out of the way I would have to go to find a place to camp!

Northern Caminos: Updates, Accommodation List

Hi Dave! This is amazing! I admit, I am rushing right now and have not had a chance to look over the lists. I'm sure they will be very helpful! My question is, are there hostels/albergues in between the destinations.....let's say I don't just stick to the Etapas and end up somewhere in the...

Norte- Primitivo

Sounds like you must have met some THRU-HIKERS..perhaps they had done the PCT or AT? I know I need to be flexible and listen to my body, but it would certainly be nice to finish! I have to do my homework and read about the locations of all the different hostels/albergues. I plan to get up early...

Norte- Primitivo

Hi everyone, This is my first post! I am arriving to Madrid on June 30th and have made arrangements to get to Irun that same night. I'm sure I'll be exhausted, but my hopes are to start the Camino on the 1st. I fly back to the states on August 5. With that said, I've seen the some of the route...
