    Easy/safe road routes first 7 days?

    This is a great site! It shows the elevations along the way which is really helpful. We will book our accommodations ahead and I will be able to search for lodging that let’s us charge an eBike. Thanks Corned Beef!

    Easy/safe road routes first 7 days?

    All good questions Barbara. I’m the forward scout for this as I walked the Frances in 2018 and seven of my friends joined me for one week of it starting in Logroño. Those same friends all want to do another week and would like to start hiking in SJPDP this time. Our good friend was left out the...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Camino Portuguese right now, Lisbon vs. Porto start

    We have flights planned to land in Lisbon on June 4th and start a camino from either Lisbon or Porto. Is there a forum topic yet on what things are like right now on the Portuguese Caminos?
