Anyone know where to get a hiking pole in Bilbao on a Sunday? My boyfriend is doing a 30 day walk on Norte route and having a tough time negotiating rough terrains. He’s staying in Bilbao overnight and all the stores seem to close on Sundays… It will take several days to make it to another big town. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
It's a holiday weekend, so he may find many stores closed. There may be a "China store" open that will have hiking poles. These are stores with a little bit of everything for low prices.
 
Thank you for the suggestion! How would one go about finding/looking for ‘China store’? For instance, any way to look them up on Google map?
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

I was trying to figure that out myself! Maybe Google "bazaar" "china bazaar" or "euro store."

Here's one:

I also found some called "Hiper Euro."

This one is open tomorrow: https://goo.gl/maps/CLAxTwfAA1LXXZxU6

Doing the Portuguese at present. I just picked up a stick. Very happy with it.
