    Weather and Difficulty Questions

    I walked the Norte starting the last week in October 2019. That happened to be an extremely rainy year in northern Spain--mudslides on the trail, walking paths that were like stream beds, and areas of the trail that were under water. The locals were helpful by warning us of washed out trail...

    Del Norte in 30 days?

    Last October I decided to pass through Burgos and went on to Tardajos. My personal preference on the Canino was staying in smaller towns. I stayed at La Fabrics in Tardajos and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The building is completely renovated inside. Rooms accommodate only four people. The patio...

    About to buy my shoes.

    I hiked the Camino Frances in a broken-in pair of Merrill Moabs. They were shot by the time I arrived in Finisterre. I had worn Moabs for five years and thought they were as good as I could expect. When I returned home after my last Camino, I decided to try Oboz Sawtooth shoes. I’ve hiked...

    Two Weeks Until Departure, And This Problem Shows Up

    I had the same problem when I started my Camino last October. Unfortunately, about 200 miles into my journey I started experiencing pain from the hernia. I picked up some ibuprophen and took it each morning after breakfast and was able to complete my journey, and went on to Muxia and Finistere...
