Backpack transfer along Norte - September 2022

[Michael Mattalo]

Good evening fellow peregrinos. My apologies if I am repeating a post that has already been answered but I have searched the site without any answer. I was to walk Norte in autumn 2020, but COVID did a number on that, I am now looking to walk in Aug/Sep 2022 and would love my bride of 38 years to join me (we've walked two full Caminos together already). Given the ascent and descent and distances of Norte, we would prefer if at least my wife's pack can be transferred between stages from Irun to Santiago. Is there a reliable service that does this? thank you, everyone. and Buen Camino.

I used Correos, and had no trouble (https://www.elcaminoconcorreos.com/en/camino-del-norte-the-northern-way). I communicated by email or by telephone (they had English-speaking staff), and left the pack with the envelope at the entrance of my pension when I left, and it was waiting at my destination later that day.

Hi Michael Mattalo,
We used the Spanish Post Office, Correos, in 2018 when we walked from Irun to Santiago and then on to Finnisterre and Muxia. They were great, very reliable. https://www.elcaminoconcorreos.com/en/

Buen camino

I have friends who just returned from The Norte and used Correos and were very happy with them.

I am currently on Del Norte. I tried to get bag transfer twice from Mikel. “It is not possible” was the response both times. Glad to learn about Correos. Thank you!

Who is Mikel, and how did you hear about him?
