[QUOTE="peregrina2000, post: 336821, member: 537"] I have heard from a couple of forum members who are tempted by this route, so I thought I would pull things together and give a report. First the overall picture: This year I walked from Llançà (on the Costa Brava north of Barcelona) to Montserrat (I'll call that the Cami St. Jaume) (total of 10 days). There I met LTfit and we walked the Cami Català from Montserrat through Huesca to Santa Cilia de Jaca, which is on the Camino Aragonés (10 1/2 days). From there we got a ride up to Somport (on the border with France) and walked the Aragonés to Puente la Reina (6 1/2 days). A bus took us to Pamplona and a train to Ponferrada. In Ponferrada, we went onto the Invierno (I continued on the Invierno, LT went to the Sanabrés) (13 days). I arrived in Santiago on July 14. I'll post some comments on these four caminos (St. Jaume, Català, Aragonés and Invierno) separtely. So, I'll start with the St. Jaume. This is a "fake Camino" route marked by the Generalitat. It goes from Port de la Selva to Girona, from Girona to Vic, and from Vic to Montserrat. It is deemed "fake" by some because the historical routes go EITHER through Girona or Vic, but the Generalitat has linked the two cities. I won't get into the merits of the dispute over the "fake" vs. "real" Camino but I will say that this route may be fake, but it is spectacular. Amazing scenery, lots of Romanesque monasteries, cloisters, and churches, and two exceptionally nice cities (Girona and Vic). So don't let the labels turn you off. Here are my stages for this first part: Day 1 -- Llançà up to St. Pere de Rodes monastery and back to Llançà (13 km) Day 2 -- Llançà to Figueres (30) Day 3 -- Figueres to Báscara (18) Day 4 -- Báscara to Girona (32) Day 5 -- Girona to Sant Feliu de Pallerols (42) Day 6 -- Sant Feliu to L'Esquirol (32) Day 7 -- L'Esquirol to Vic (32) (because of a detour to a monastery) Day 8 -- Vic to Santa María d'Oló (32) Day 9 -- Santa María to Manresa (42) Day 10 -- Manresa to Montserrat (30) I will try to do a day by day with a few pictures for each stage, and I'm happy to answer questions or give suggestions to those who may be starting out soon. Buen camino, Laurie [/QUOTE]
