Open toe sandals. I wear nothing else. ALways surprised to see most people wearing such heavy duty trekking gear. Why? No need in summer or autumn. I recommend sandals and golf clothes. (You will, however, be frowned upon by ”real” hikers. Just ignore.)
Thanks again for your advise! I can inform you all that I will be starting from the beginning, from Irún. I guess I will make it to Santander during my two weeks. Have just realised that I might be able to walk yet another week so we'll see where I'll end up. :-) Where ever I end up I will come...
Hi,
I only have 2 weeks to walk some part of el Camino del norte. Could someone recommend me a nice route? :-)
If I can I want to aviod walking along big roads. I do not mind paying extra for accomodation as I prefer not to be crowded. I do not mind difficuly paths. I am in no hurry and I enjoy...
:-D This made me laugh! :-D
Must say I feel a bit sorry for you though. It does sound like you tourtured yourself and still you walked the whole way!
I agree with a lot what you are saying, but I still enjoyed it. I had planned to walk more on my in the afternoon but as it was 39 degrees I just...
Just back home from walk from SJPP to Burgos. Also had to skip two days. I would have skipped walk between Santo Domingo and Belorado - it was next to a big road all day. I would also skip entering Burgos = industrial area But I would not skip Burgos - nicest bigger place I've been to. I loved...
I am in Villafranca right now. (Unfortunatelly not feeling good so will have to stay here for a while)
Everytime a tell someone that I am Swedish they say "Have you met Viktor?" Apparently he has been an inspiration to many, starting in Sweden 4 months ago, I have been told. I am so curious -...
Sounds like bargain! Good luck with the sale.
I saw that the small albergue in Cirauqui is for sale for 480 000 euros. (Maybe good for someone who likes to live next to the church bells - striking every 15 minutes al night long ;-) )
Hi,
I am in Logrono and have to be in Bugos on Saturday morning/before lunch. To do this I must take the bus some part of the way. Can anyone suggest which part is best to skip?
:-)
Back from the walk. We ended up in Morgade the first night. Arrived at 5 and our walking companions got the last beds while I ended up in a double room. Great place! Thanks again for all recommendations!
Just back from a wonderful short walk from Sarria to Santiago. Many great places to stay. Just one big mistake. Hostal Labrador in Hospital da Cruz. Body full of big bites in the morning. Checked the beds in the evening but did not see anything. The whole place was quite sad. We were the only...
Hi,
Will do the last 10 from Sarria next week. Will start walking around 3 in the afternoon so I will not make it that far. Any suggestions on where to stay?
:-) Anna
