I want to travel from Porto to Paris by rail in October. It looks like I take the local to Coimbra B, then the night train to Hendaye, then the TGV to Paris??? How best to reserve it? Loco2, Renfe or CP? Is it true that reservations won’t be available until July or August? Thanks 🙏🏻
Not sure if this belongs in the Equipment forum so I will probably post in both! Where would you recommend I go to buy reasonably priced hiking poles in Porto?
For those of us who are flying without checked baggage, it appears to be impossible to bring poles in our carry-ons. One might therefore think that there must be a lot of poles that get left behind in Europe. Is this the case and is there a stash anywhere? Are they all in SdC?
I am a newbie and will be walking the CP from Porto to Valenca along the Coastal Route in October. I am 73 and in good shape...and I am expecting blue skies and gentle breezes all the way...but should some ill-health or weather beset me, I was wondering if there are buses or taxis between towns...
