[QUOTE="NM99, post: 1084310, member: 100820"] I did my first Camino (at 59 going on 60) in May-June, Francés from SJPP to Santiago. If you’re in good shape it is definitely doable to walk through to Roncesvalles and I know I could have gone beyond, especially with the nervous energy of the new experience. But I was glad I had heeded the recommendation to stay (and book ahead!) at Orisson for two reasons. First, I ended my first, arduous day with a feeling of accomplishment—but also with energy to spare that allowed me to take in the spectacular views and fully enjoy the evening at an albergue with fellow pilgrims. Secondly, it was absolutely fantastic to wake up in the Pyrenees. If you’re lucky, you’ll also have a clear day and get to see the sun rising through the mist in the valley below and the many layers of hills in the distance. Spectacular. The walk the next day is gorgeous and you’ll be fresh to enjoy it as well, with the wild horses and amazing vistas. If you’re so inclined, you could opt to walk beyond Roncesvalles to the next town.
