    That is some good advise. I’ll definitely try to use local to reserve rooms. TY!

    Kumano Kodo

    Is there a passport to get stamped like the Camino? Also, I’d like to end my trek at the heritage center. Do you recommend a route to take? Was trying to do a 10 day trek if possible.

    They look amazing!! Thank you for posting. And I have my Camino credentials framed. Would it be acceptable if I take a photo of them to show proof?

    Thanks for your response. If I may ask a couple questions since you did the Kumano. Is there a specific endpoint like the Camino. Somewhere to end and get a certificate? Also, I’ll have about 10-14 days to walk. Do you have a recommendation for the best route? I’d love to see as many temples...

    There was more than I expected. I would say about 50/50. But the majority of road walking was through the little towns and villages. They try to keep you off main roads as best they can.

    I DID IT!!

    Agreed!! One of the coolest historical sites is in Padron. It sits behind the old armory on top of the hill. You cant miss it. If you make you way around the back of it youll find a big pile of rocks with a cross on it. It designates the spot where St. James gave a sermon. Not to many...
