Do you know how far you can walk each day?I only have 30 days AND I'm determined to make it to Finisterre
15/20 miles a day. Start in Pamplona. Easy. Buen camino
I know Saint Jean is considered one of the starting points unofficially. But if I only have 30 days AND I'm determined to make it to Finisterre (that's where I really want to go), where would you recommend I start, assuming I'm walking in Sept/October?
Thanks!
At that pace you can start in SJPdP and reach Fisterra in thirty days. Example, one day to Roncesvalles on the Camino Navarra, then:15-20 miles a day, maybe more.

I'd suggest a pace of 20km per day. (aka 12.5 miles). 30 days @ 20km = 600 km.
Is your purpose to walk as far and as fast as possible or is it to experience the culture along the way?

Start from Burgos. As you get into October the days get shorter and weather patterns change. Some albergues and other facilities in smaller villages may be closing for the winter. Keep a few days in "reserve".[...]I only have 30 days AND I'm determined to make it to Finisterre (that's where I really want to go), where would you recommend I start, assuming I'm walking in Sept/October?
WOW SR. PIOGAW that is very extraordinary what you did congratulations !!!!!
This is really one of those questions that has no definitive answer. What we think is going to happen before we set out often bears little resemblance to the reality of our pilgrimage. Is it possible for you to walk to Finisterre in 30 days? Yes, it is. Will you want to when the time comes? You won't know that until you're there.if I only have 30 days AND I'm determined to make it to Finisterre (that's where I really want to go), where would you recommend I start, assuming I'm walking in Sept/October?
