@Beeman, I don't know if you realise or not but this is quite an old thread. I've since walked the Verde, beautiful route. -
Beeman replied to the thread Camino Verde trail conditions?.I walked the Verde in2019,loved it,the green patches were easy to follow,and never got lost.

I can only speak to Pacer Poles, but I don't have to "grip" them. My hands rest in the handles.

I’m not a big fan of the last 100km of most caminos. The Portuguese from Tui + Variante Espiritual is the exception to this, so that would be my firm recommendation. Also lots of accommodation options and cafés etc to stop at to make it easier...
