    February Start: SJPP, Roncesvalles, or Pamplona?

    Hi Susanne, I’ve completed 5 Camino’s (starting my 6th on the 25th) I’ve always walked this time of year as it works best with my schedule and I don’t like hordes of people. Every time I’ve started in SJPP and in the winter you have to walk the Valcarlos route. It’s mainly on the road but it’s...

    Cheap airline flights ?

    Like I said you need to check with your airline. I use American Airlines and they only charge a $100 fee. About to go on my 7th Camino. And have done this 3 times. Most recently in 2020. That being said using a discount airline like Priceline or booking you will most certainly be screwed if you...

    Hi First time Camino-er here

    Hi Steve, there are trains everywhere. Possibly fly into Bilbao then train to Sarria. I’ve completed 5 Caminos but they were all in early spring as the crowds are massive in the summer. The last 100k is nuts. Might want to prebook to make sure you get a bed and to be honest I would get a...

    Cheap airline flights ?

    Hi Moondance, I’ve completed 5 Caminos and there are a few important points to consider. (I had to learn the hard way) The best price ticket could cost you a lot more. My first Camino I used a discount airline. We finished a week early so we tried to change out flights. Turns out most of...

    SJPP February 17th update.

    Hi everyone, I'm now in Roncesvalles after walking from Saint Jean Pied de Port this morning. The weather was perfect, not a cloud in the sky. There is snow at the top of the mountain and it's windy but it was a perfect day. ALL the trails off the road (via Valcarlo) are closed because of mud...

    Starting the French way in Saint Jean mid February

    Yes I do realize it is closed. I have walked from SJPP two previous times and both at this time of the year. It is still an amazing walk to go over the pyrenees. Yes I will arrive in Paris and take a train to SJPP. The first time we landed in Madrid, then took a train to Pamplona. Then a taxi to...
