Sure you will, Honza
Even those 60+ are young on Camino!
I wish I would have known about Caminos in Spain at your age...

Buen Camino!

Hi Jenicek!
I can´t pinpoint if people I met were 18 or 19 or 21, but I surely met a fair amount of early-20s along my camino. They are not the majority, but they are surely there!

I'm 30-something, and saw many people younger and older - not so much my own age. Or maybe they look younger because of the camino, and I need to walk more!
