I really don't think that @ctwillie is risking any injury. They just got some pre-Camino jitters when a 20 km hike was more difficult than expected. If they alter their plans to start closer to Santiago and walk shorter stages everything... -
Rex replied to the thread Laundry on the Francigena.This is a generous group and wonderful resource. And they made my start in Canterbury, then on across France, a smooth walk with all the tips and postings from their group. Money well spent to support them and use their knowledge base.

Rex replied to the thread Laundry on the Francigena.Hand wash and hang dry is the most common option. I'm starting the last leg from Lucca to Roma in 2 weeks, having walked from Canterbury to Martigny in 2022 and Martigny to Lucca in 2023. In France, there are very few accommodations that have...

How do you feel today? Are you more sore or less sore than yesterday? You did 20 km with a 20 lb pack in 5 hours that’s quite an accomplishment! Along with all of the advice already given, I say keep your plans. Do you think you could do 20 km...

It’s not how far nor how many days. You will love Spain and the Portuguese start in Biona, Vigo, Pontevedra it is an experience you’ll never regret

Not sure I would cancel. First of all, the 1200 ft in elevation change is worth some k. If the change in altitude as a percent of walk is high that probably did you in. The CP along the coast doesn't have anything near a 1200 ft up, so I...
