    Cinque Terra - one way walking only

    I have hiked this route many times. It is the blue path #2 from Monterossa heading southeast to Vernazza. It is approximately a 12 km section. It is a hilly and rocky section in part and also narrow in parts. The trail between Riomaggiore and Manarola (Via dell'Amore) and Manarola to...

    Rip off Restaurant

    We are conscious of food costs on caminos, as eating out 3 times a day can add up and we try and economize where we can. So one meal that is relatively easy to economize on is breakfast. We buy fruit, and yogurt in small cups almost daily, the night before, and purchase a small bag of nuts...

    Rip off Restaurant

    Sorry that you had such a “traumatic” experience…. but even more sorry that for a few Euros/ dollars you were so concerned about being ripped off for breakfast that your energy was directed away from the beautiful coastal camino you are walking. Frankly, I would have been happy to find a...

    LIVE from the Camino Dog attack

    I have met many untethered and stray dogs, as well as been pained by seeing heavily chained and clearly lonely isolated dogs behind fences along the CF. In addition, over many years of hiking I have passed hundreds of loose dogs. The vast majority of dogs are friendly! I start greeting...

    The Way: how do you feel about THE movie?

    I didn’t respond to the Poll because I felt different about the movie after I walked it. I really liked the movie initially and it partially inspired me walk the CF. I also read several books including Walk in a Relaxed Manner which enhanced my desire to walk it. However, after I walked the...

    What pushed or invited or drew you to set off for 'The Camino'?

    Have always been a hiker/walker. Traveled almost every Sommer to Austria, Italy or Switzerland to walk when I worked. Saw the movie The Way and read Joyce Rupp’s Walked in a Relaxed Manner and decided to walk it.

    Cheap airline flights ?

    Another consideration: Rarely will you find really “cheap” nonstop direct flights, so how willing are you to make stops? Are there direct flights from Detroit? WHEN do you want to fly……off peak/shoulder seasons or winter months are usually lower cost, both in flights and hotels. I love...
