    I leave tomorrow from the US to SJPDP to begin my Camino (Francés). Just want to say “Thank You” to this Forum; I’ve gotten many good ideas, and several questions answered. Hope to report back. Buen Camino! I feel like a baby bird finally...

    Day 4: Los Arcos to Viana It was forecast to be 27C today, and I had planned to make an early start to avoid the heat. Life had other plans, and some calls home had to be made. On the trail by 0730 nonetheless. It was another very scenic walk...

    Day 3: Estella to Los Arcos The weather is warming up - today was warm and sunny and it was 23C when I reached Los Arcos. It was another beautiful day on the trail. A steep climb early on, a few hills along the way, but not difficult. More...

    Hi there - we are two 'older' women from Australia who will be walking the Camino in September and October 2025 - we are tempted by the companies that pre book accomodation and bag transfers but think we will pay a real premium for this service...

    Left Saint Jean this morning at 7am. Got to Roncesvalles just before 1:30. Weather was clear and beautiful! I didn't pre book, and was able to get a bed. I did hear they were all full by 4pm though. Very happy with my first day on the Camino!

    Well…… about $400 usd in socks and liners later and about 160 miles. I live in California near the Sierra mountains so we have some good trails and heat- I wanted to find my perfect combination for no blisters. I am an older dude who is on...

    You haven't provided much information and that makes it very difficult to figure out what your problems might be. A WhatsApp call may go unanswered for many reasons including you calling at a time when the person receiving your call is asleep...

    Numbers on the Camino Frances are now fifty times more than they were when I walked it for the first time. At what point in the past should that growth have been halted? And how would you have managed that? Realistically I think that most of...
