    Instead of Sarria to Santiago-any other100-150 km on the Frances

    Sooo, after much deliberation, I have decided to walk Sarria to Santiago after all. Since it is my first time, it is the choice I returned to. I now have all my travel booked to Madrid then Sarria, including rooms to start out. I found a pair of comfortable hiking shoes, and am close to a...

    Instead of Sarria to Santiago-any other100-150 km on the Frances

    This is so appealing, but I am not confident in handling the mountain walking-yet. I hope to be able to prove to myself that I can after this first Camino.

    Getting Great Mileage But Missing the Jewels

    I was also considering starting in Leon, now am now fairly sure I will start in Astorga, then slowly see how far I get. I am planning on just 10-15 km per day, no rush to any finishing point. I may or may not get to Santiago, and at this point, that's ok. I can always change my mind as I go...

    Instead of Sarria to Santiago-any other100-150 km on the Frances

    This is so helpful! Now I am more confident in starting in Astorga. The climb to Cruz de ferro looks more gradual-I think (hope) I should be able to handle it. I love the option to go around O'cerebriero!

    Instead of Sarria to Santiago-any other100-150 km on the Frances

    Thank you all so much. I am now currently considering starting somewhere in the middle, Astorga, Burgos perhaps. I have some health concerns regarding climbs, I might be OK but I 'm not sure....how difficult are the climbs in this area ? Should I avoid Ocerebriero?

    Getting Great Mileage But Missing the Jewels

    I love this thread and the idea put forth by several folks here of just walking slower and absorbing the whole thing. I will be doing my first camino in June, and very much look forward to the experience of a slower walk and interacting with the smaller towns and albergues along the way, along...

    Thank you Kamleman. I guess I should also add that I want to keep it a realtively easy hike, at least my first go. Not sure Im ready to climb up mountains yet.

    Thank you. So much. I have also read elsewhere that Leon to OCerebriero is very beautiful. Thoughts?

    Instead of Sarria to Santiago-any other100-150 km on the Frances

    I have decided on the Frances in early to mid June for my first Camino. I keep hearing how crowded the Sarria to Santiago portion is at that time of year. am concerned It may be too crowded for me. I am flying into Madrid. I'm not stuck on having to get to Santiago. I am looking for lots...
