    Masar Ibrahim Al-Khalil, Palestine

    This sounds wonderful. I've looked through their website, I'm curious to find out 1) Can it be walked independantly 2) Are there trail markers of any type? 3) Is grotto camping free camping? 4) Average prices for accomodation, meals etc

    SORTED :) Thanks to Agoda- I have booked myself into the Pension Mari Carmen. Any advice on a credentical from Irun still gratefully welcomed (I'm using a timed airport computer so searching the forum is quite difficult) Thanks folks, Tash.

    Irun - place to stay October 1st

    oh dear, I presume this also affects my plan of getting my credencial from the albergue also. Where else in Irun might this be accomplished? Thanks, again.

    Irun - place to stay October 1st

    Hey folks, I'm one of those last minute, quite unprepared (sorry) people who usually rely on a bit of luck, and some common sense. However, common sense hasn't prevailed, I'm en-route to Spain, first flight out of three complete, and have just realised the website for the Pilgrim's Albergue in...

    Anyone just back? I hear Norte is terribly Crowded

    Flying out tomorrow - arriving three days later (budget flights!) and hope to start walking after a good sleep or two - I'll update when I can on the number of people about - but I'm a first timer so don't have experience to compare to.

    Who else is up for an October stroll ??

    That's great Aerdna, such an awesome feeling to have the tickets booked and just a few days to wait :). I finally got my tickets sorted too - looks like I'll be jetlagged for at least a couple of days - flying Australia - Singapore - Thailand - Norway - Madrid - then train to Irun, but was by...

    Who else is up for an October stroll ??

    Hello Aerdna , I get that a lot from people , too :) good to hear from someone else starting at the same time - hopefully we'll meet up enroute. Looks like I'll be arriving in Irun in the afternoon of the first - but might stay there a couple of nights because I have thirty something hours of...

    Buying sticks on the camino

    Thanks Rickster, appreciate that. I have also found there is a Decathlon in Irun, so seems like I'll have more than enough variety to choose from (and many tempting hiking toys to not buy!)

    Trekking poles in Irun?

    Hello folks, I've been through some older threads, but just wanted to check if anyone recently has found a camping/sports type shope in walking distance from the Hospital de Peregrinos de Irún albergue, as I would like to buy trekking poles in Irun before I head off on the Norte soon. I do have...

    Buying sticks on the camino

    Hello Rickster - and everyone else, would you mind telling us the name of the shops please, or even which shops are accesible by foot from the albergues? ? I also want to carry my pack to Spain as carry on - but don't want to be without poles :) Thanks. I have found this one online...

    Who else is up for an October stroll ??

    Hi Karen - I think you may have posted in slightly the wrong spot - as your post appears in answer (as such) to a different post which I put up. I'm sure someone must have put up an alternative in English - but you'd have to search through previous threads/strains of the forum. But - when I get...

    Who else is up for an October stroll ??

    Hello folks - new to the forum (and am loving it - thank you to all those who share their advice and tips). I'm hoping to head out on the Camino Norte at the end of September/beginning of October. I know the weather is going to be wet at times :) - but I'm just wondering if there's still enough...
