Somewhat related, we will get to Biarritz late in the day on the 22nd of September. I'm thinking it will make sense for us to spend the night there (we will have been traveling for more that 24 hours) and then catch the bus/train the morning of the 23rd. Any advice on where to stay?
Thanks. My wife and I plan to do the Camino in the fall. We hiked the AT last year so we agree about the importanc of extra sizing for the shoes.
What about sleeping pads? We used self inflating pads on the AT, but we were thinking of the foam pads. Are the necessary?
My wife and I will start at SJPP the last week in September. From the research I've done the weather should be pretty good, although there may be some snow in the mountains.
I hope we meet.
My wife and I hiked the Appalachian Trail this past year and I swear by "exoficio" underwear. They are light, comfortable, and you can dry overnight. I plan to take 2 or 3 pairs when we do the camino in May.
