    Anyone walking the Ingles at Easter?

    Thank You Tia. That seemed to be the only one we came across online. Do you have to give Correos the exact albergue you will be staying in or is there a general location where they drop the bags? We like to choose albergues on arrival and generally try to stay in the municipals.

    Camino Facil or Jacotrans

    I am planning on bringing a group of teachers to do Sarria to Santiago next Easter. What happens if you do not have an albergue booked in the next town? Can you just nominate your backpack to be sent to any albergue and pick it up there and then decide where you want to stay?

    Has anyone started in Lourdes and walked to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Qalawun and NicMen, did you find any websites in English with explanations of route? Walking from SJPDP to Lourdes this April and I'm a bit apprehensive about the lack of information. I bought Stacey's book as it is the only one in English but it lacks detail on the route.

    Plan has changed Chloe. We are now going to walk from SJPdP to Lourdes. Currently looking for information on that! Thanks for the reply.

    From Lourdes to SJPDP

    Thanks Annie. Do you recommend the Lourdes route? We have decided to walk from St Jean to Lourdes. I'm assuming we shouldn't have too much difficulty in doing it backwards. Do you recommend any particular guidebook?

    Starting in Lourdes

    Thank you for the replies. Bshea, your first link didn't seem to work for me. Donal, I may ask you about this the next time I see you!
