    Post-Camino shoe observations

    Thanks for the tip Laurie! After my Camino last year and consistently dealing with blistered feet, I recently made the decision that for my planned Camino next year I will try wearing trail runners rather than hiking boots to see if it makes a difference. I'd also read elsewhere how...

    Class of 2019

    It seems the Camino is calling again and I just can't fight it! I walked the CF in 2017 and have decided to return in July 2019 to walk Camino del Norte/Primitivo. It can't come soon enough!

    Fitness level

    Hey Luc, It sounds to me like you have already put a lot of effort into your training so don't throw that away on doubt of not being able to cover those large distances everyday. Remember that it is up to you how far you choose to walk in a day. It's your way and your journey. I can tell you...

    Perfect socks

    I have to agree with you David that the Wright socks are not blister proof (even though they claim that they are on their website).

    Where did you walk ( locally ) in 2018?

    New Zealand being just a hop, skip and a jump away from Melbourne, Australia (in reality a 3hr plane trip), I thought why not see what amazing walks and scenery this country has to show off?! It did not disappoint! Photos cannot do justice for the many beautiful landscapes I was lucky enough to...

    Beginner's questions

    Hey Roger, Just in regards to your query about walking poles, I originally purchased a set of Helinox walking poles prior to my Camino in 2017. They are extremely lightweight as well as having the convenience of being collapsible for easy carrying and storage when you don't require them. They...

    Leaving on my first Camino in the morning & I'm terrified. Please help!

But I feel that I can understand to some degree where your concern for...
