[QUOTE="oursonpolaire, post: 768634, member: 1799"] I am a Norte-repeater as I quite enjoy it but there should be no soft-pedalling the difficulty of the first week. Deba to Markina/Xemein and to Guernica/Gernika are two very tough days, with few stops, and are at the beginning of the route. There are a few options for breaking Markina/Xemein-Guernica/Gernika into two stages, and I would recommend looking at it. There is more asphalt, perhaps, than the Francese, but most of it is on country roads, and my recollections are that it is not much worse than the Francese. Off-road paths are perhaps more work than the Francese, but it all balances out and, unless there are some specific medical conditions in play, neither consideration is that great. [/QUOTE]
