From St. Mathieu to Santiago 2016

[Helen Mannersjö]

Hello
Last spring my wife and Via de la Plata and it was a fantastic experience. So in March/April 2016 we intend to go back . This time we want to go a little further and we are looking to start in St. Mathieu France and then continue onto Camino del Norte and Camino Primitivo . I have a hard time finding information about the route through France. Also looking for an English guidebook for this part of the walk . Tips are appreciated.

Buen Camino

Hello,

St. Mathieu : Pointe Saint-Mathieu, Finistère? Or Saint-Mathieu, Haute-Vienne? Or?

Hello,

St. Mathieu : Pointe Saint-Mathieu, Finistère? Or Saint-Mathieu, Haute-Vienne? Or?

Starting point is supposed to be in St. Mathieu-de-Fine-Terre just above Quimper I think ?

OK, Abbey Saint-Mathieu-de-Fine-Terre in Le Conquet, Finistère. Let's say west of Brest. An inspiring place and a recognized starting point.
