My wife developed a "mild" stress fracture during our first Camino Frances in 2015 in her knee and heal. After returning to the US, her doctor prescribed a knee brace and she bought a different set of hiking shoes (Saloman trail hiking shoes)... -

An easy and effective way to build up supportive muscles that can help avoid shin splints (and it can be done while sitting on your duff while watching a movie or while reading the Camino Forum!): Sit on a chair, feet flat on floor, knees at 90...

During the several caminos I’ve walked, I’ve observed my mind provides the greatest challenge - to walk faster, farther and sooner than my body can handle. Whether it’s because of the adrenaline that powers everyone early in a Camino or from...

Buen Camino!.

Hey there! I wanted to chat about my experience on the 2017 Camino Frances. I'm pretty average physically, maybe a tad overweight, did some training (could've done more), and could've lightened my backpack a bit. Started off strong from SJPP...

It takes 8 people to swing it (not saying they're paid but that doesn't mean it should be free). Then you have the cost of maintenance, cleaning, coals/incense, insurance, and if it generates a bit of income so be it. I've heard people getting...
