    SJPP to Roncesvalles

    I walked 3 days of the Camino with my daughter last spring as a trial run. We took the Valcarlos route, as was advised, and made it to Roncesvalles the first day. I'll be starting again in late September and want to try the Napoleon route. Is it much harder? Can I make it to Roncesvalles in...
