    Has anyone used baggage transport on the Del Norte?

    Thanks for the info. I do not have a phone, but I have an IPod that I can email from. I will see if I can set up the device in Irun with their email or messenger info. Susan

    Very afraid to walk alone ever since Denise's tragedy (RIP)

    Cherry - I want to walk the del Norte by myself this June. I would like to correspond with you if it is Ok. I'm not up to speed on using boards like this so I don't know how to make our conversation private without posting my email address. I will "wander" around this cyber site and see what...

    Norte - Just Returned from a Great Experience!

    I'm planning on doing del Norte in June 2017. Glad to hear all went well. I will alternate hostels with pensions. I also wanted to get some sort of dog repellent I was hoping to buy pepper spray in Spain. Does anyone know if this is possible? Where would I buy it (pharmacy?) Thanks.
