HI all,
Did two weeks of the Camino Frances from ST Jean in April and loved it, it was busy enough for me early april though so don't fancy it in May. I am going to do one week of the Camino D Norte in May, which section would be the nicest week to do ?
Any tips appreciated.
Is the Camino Norte much quieter than the Frances ? will it still be good for meeting people ?
Regards
 
Best lightweight pocket guides
Best lightweight pocket guides
Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
I am sure you will meet a few people on the trail. As to where to start for a week, its a hard choice. I would probably choose from Santillana del Mar just west of Santander.
