Hola--a question for those with more information than we: approximately how much of the Camino Frances consists of concrete so hard it makes knees cry and feet shriek in agony? The reason I ask is that miles 3 and 4 of our 6 mile training loop are on reinforced concrete that is smooth and enormously pleasing to the eye but really hard on the hips, knees and feet, even though our boots are well broken-in. We changed the route today to include more off piste surfaces and experienced immediate relief but are now curious how much of the hard stuff we have to look forward to. The Brierley and Dintamen/Landis guides very thoughtfully give the paved/unpaved percentages but any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Buen Camino!
