Frances St J P D P to Santiago on MTBs Aug 16
Norte planned on MTB June 17
Has anyone mountain biked the Norte?
We did the `frances last year and it was a fantastic experience. I would also like to know if anyone knows the relative height gains for the two.
Our routes are and will be Irun to Santiago and St Jean to Santiago
Many thanks

Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
The Gronze site has elevation maps for each of its etapas.
Thanks, I have seen this site but what I really want is the total elevation gain for both routes so I can compare the two
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-

Can't you figure it out using the data provided by Gronze?

It would take a long time to take the elevation data of each day, it does not give elevation totals. i've found it on bike map, but there seem to be 2 identical rides, one says 6,910m the other 13,280m both covering 845km, you can see why its not easy!
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
