    luggage Pamplona to SdC

    Hi all, hope to find some answers for a friend who will be walking late 2012 from Pamplona to SdC. As we live in Australia, we usually come with more luggage to Europe than we actually need on the Camino. As my friend will be flying straight from Sydney to Barcelona, then by bus to Pamplona...

    How busy is the Camino del Norte

    Hi there, I walked the del Norte from Irun to SdC in May to mid-June this year. Obviously a much quieter time than the summer months. I never had a problem finding a bed in the refugios. I would imagine that the period after the summer/holiday period is as quiet again, say from September...

    Bed Bugs on the Norte ???????

    Thanks Mike, your experience or better the lack of it (BBs I mean !) is very encouraging. I'm looking very much forward to a NON-encounter ! Viajero, thanks for your reply also, but where on the Norte in 2009 did you encounter BBs? Thanx and Buen Camino Bem

    Bed Bugs on the Norte ???????

    Hola and Hi everyone, who can give me advice on this rather itchy topic "BED BUGS"?? I will be walking the "Norte" in May to mid June. Walked the "Frances" same time in 2008 and infrequently had encounters with BBs on route, not on myself, but with/on fellow-peregrinos. Remember that most...
