    Hiking stick instead of walking poles

    Hi Use hiking poles as it's much better support. ( Takes pressure off your knees, hips & back)

    Trekking poles

    Also, if you don't buy any of them, you can always ask along the way at some of the Albergue if there is any trekking poles available that have been left behind by other pilgrims. Might able to pick them up for a small donation at the Albergue.

    Trekking poles

    There's no need to reserve or purchase online as you can buy them in St. Jean de Port next to the program passport office as they have plenty.

    Trekking poles

    Hi Barb, They are easy to use. You don't need an expensive set. If you are starting at St Pied De Port there is a trekking shop next to the Pilgrim passport office. They are pretty cheap. If you are not sure how to use them properly, the guy in the shop will demonstrate how to use it.
