    People with Altra Lone Peak shoes

    I used to use Merrills, and after I put my first pair of Ultra Lone Peaks on I have been wearing them EVERY day since ( Camino Frances 2019) !! It took a week or so to get used to the zero heel drop but now and since, LOVE them.

    Small digital camera

    I am a professional photographer and I took a Sony VR 100 with me when I did the Camino Frances in 2019. It worked as good as my high dollar, large and heavy pro cameras. It fits in the palm of your hand, and I used it on "auto" mode and it made over 3000 excellent photos. Great compact camera.

    Best footwear for Camino del Norte & Primitivo

    Look into Altra trail runners. I love The Lone Peak model. Lightweight, quick drying and super comfortable. I trekked the Camino Frances in 2018 (500 miles) without one blister!! Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.

    Sick in Pamplona

    Go to the hospital there. I got vertigo in Pamplona and went to the ER and they took me right in, gave me a head to toe once over, wrote a prescription and went to the pharmacy right around the corner, [aid the one Euro for the pills and was good to!

    Which route for my first camino (solo female)?

    When I walked The Frances in 2019, most of the solo trekkers I saw were women! Its well traveled, beautiful, well marked and supported. I would think that if you stay in Albergues you could do it on forty a day.

    Best way to deal with plantar fascitis and best shoes to wear

    Don't know about that problem but can mention that I wore Altra Lone Peak trail shoes and Darn Tough merino wool socks, walked from Bayonne to Sarria and didn't get one blister!! Just purchased Altra Timpe 3 and really like them.

    Is this man and shop still present in Castrojeriz?

    I too stopped in Castrojeriz for the night in 2019. We went into his shop and chatted with him for a long time, I was shocked at how many pairs of shoes he stocked. Rally an interesting fellow.
