Hello all,
I'm hoping to walk from Ponferrada to Santiago from 1st-11th October this year.
Very very excited to be finally getting to start my Camino experience! I know quite a few people who've walked from Sarria to Santiago and I've been getting really helpful advice from them but I was wondering about the Ponferrada to Sarria route - what is it like? I've tried wearing boots but they just don't sit right on my feet (or maybe I haven't found the right ones) so I'm now thinking i'll wear good hiking/walking shoes instead. I know we can't predict the weather but for those first two weeks in October what should I expect?
Any advice for a first time Camino walker (I'm in my late 30's and pretty active in my daily life - just probably not super fit!) - much appreciated!
I know this will be the start of many Camino's!!
Aine
