- Camino Frances March/April 2013
I am starting my Camino on the 25th March. I have booked my train to Pamplona, arriving late Sunday evening, 24th March with a view to staying overnight in Pamplona and getting the train to Roncenvalles to start the camino on the Monday morning. However, I have booked my flights home from Santiago on the 28th April - and I am a little alarmed that I have now not given myself enough time to get from Roncenvalles to Santiago in only thirty-four days...
How flat is El Camino Frances? Is it do-able in only thirty-four days. I'm young (23) and quite fit, but for anyone, doing over 20 km per day for thirty-four days straight is quite a challenge...
Will it be 'cheating' for me to begin my Camino in Pamplona? Thus giving myself a bit of a headstart...?
I'm very excited about starting my Camino, but I reeeeally want to complete it in one go - and not end up having to catch any buses or trains along the route to ensure that I reach Santiago in time...
What do all you experienced Pilgrims think? How long did it take you guys, and how mountainous is the route?
Any advice would be much appreciated
