Like.
You'll hear no criticism from me, and your post perfectly sums up my feelings re the changes on the Frances. As a result, I've decided it's time for me to to "branch out" to other routes, should I hear the call again. I do find it interesting... -
GGrousedoctor reacted to J Willhaus's post in the thread If there are too many pilgrims, what is a pilgrim to do? with Like.
Its a little late for people who already have their plans set in stone or who are already on the ground. My husband and I were talking about it this morning walking to my work. Most new pilgrims often don't realize that May and September are the...

This is only my opinion and suggestion and if you don't agree or like it that is fine and dandy. It will not bother me in the least. For days we have been seeing posts about too many pilgrims, bottlenecks, bed races, etc. I know many first time...

GGrousedoctor replied to the thread Piecemeal camino question.As @jcat said, if you can add a sixth day to your Camino, the Astorga to Sarria offers a great section of The Way. You get in some good climbing along with some very special spots like Astorga, Foncebadon, Cruz de Ferro, and O Cebreiro. However...

GIf you had 6 days I would say Astorga, because I loved it there! The Gronze website shows starting in Foncebadon will get you to Sarriai in 5 stages. Astorga is easy to get to by train, and I'm sure you could bus it to Foncebadon. If you...

GGrousedoctor replied to the thread Packing List Final Review. Starting in a week! :).I’m curious, have you weighed your kit? To walk far, carry less. With regard to your dad’s concern, I wear the same walking shoes every day. But, like you, I have sandals to wear in the afternoons and evenings after my hiking is over. The extra...

GYou are correct to be concerned as May is one of the busiest walking months. Definitely book through Pamplona. After that, the crowds tend to disperse a bit and more accommodations in more cities become available. At that point you can gauge if...
