    I've walked 35k a couple of times and I had a "walker's low" cuz I was dragging.😅 Now, quite a few years later I drag after only about 25k and I prefer to break up stages when possible to 20k.🙄

    I know someone who walked almost 80kms on the last day to Santiago. Met two who walked ~90. It's not that rare, apparently. I've walked more than 60kms in one go twice. Not on a Camino, but with backpack and all, so I know I could do it on the...

    D74 reacted to Robo's post in the thread Different because it's shorter with Like Like.

    D74 reacted to Tincatinker's post in the thread Impact of early/late Easter on crowds with Like Like.
    I really don’t think it matters. For the Spanish Semana Santa is a significant festival and an opportunity to walk Camino. For the irreligious April is a popular time of year because the weather will, generally, be kinder and because businesses...

    Hello! I have walked the Primitivo twice with my husband (2019 & 2021) and have not encountered problems with bed bugs. Nonetheless, we treat our gear (backpack & silk cocoon) with permethrin two weeks before we start on the Camino. The blue...

    Unless things change drastically in the next several months there will likely be 8-10 trains available most days. Here is tomorrow's schedule. And Rome2Rio recommends the train as the best transportation mode for this route (and so do I)...
