    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    ...the basis of their own experience which may have been very different and then generalise on the basis of their thinking. The very detailed weather forecast - I am speaking only of Meteoblue and Viewweather - for yesterday had still not reached their highest probability levels in the morning...

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    ...more than 1 yard ahead, a very scarey experience and knee high snow in places. I wouldn't like to repeat that. The second time in 2014, the weather was good when we first set out, then unexpectedly a storm came out of nowhere. Things got ripped out of our packs, people got blown over, some...

    I am doing some, and eventually will post everything good here. I have put some things on Instagram and facebook, if you do that. My pages are all public, feel free to friend or follow.

    LIVE from the Camino Account of a very challenging day SJPdP to Roncesvalles (crazy weather)

    So glad you made the most of your first day and it all went as well as can be expected in the difficult conditions. I hope you get the other things sorted and can enjoy and get the most out of what I'm sure will be an amazing experience for you on this beautiful path.

    How sweet of you to say, @Kirkie. Thank you! We are heading out now...into the gray weather. Yes, having my son accompany me is a huge plus!

    Yes, and sick of the weather!🌧️ Still, it's great to be experiencing what we came here to do; a little different for each one of us.

    LIVE from the Camino Feels Unpleasantly Busy on the Camino Frances (May Day, 2024)

    Stephan, I miss seeing your sketches, but totally understand. I am on the Sanabres now and with cold, wettish weather the past two days, I find I am not wanting to explore much, or check the doors of the tiny churches like I usually do to see if they may be open.

    LIVE from the Camino Starting in Bilbao - a six week Camino

    You have six weeks, lucky you! I know I am late in responding, but looking again at your posts, I am reminded of a pilgrim who did a much longer pilgrimage from his home in Ireland a year or so ago. The high speed videos and photos are excellent for informing prospective pilgrims about what to...

    Thanks for the update. Stay healthy and safe. It's so easy to get sick in this kind of weather. Buen Camino!

    LIVE from the Camino Porto/SdC/Muxia-Fisterra Apri27-May 20

    Day 5 Barcelinhos to Vitorino 22k. Another wet but colder day being higher up in the mountains. The wet weather will be with us until Tuesday next week after which we enter a dry, warm (mid 20's) period hopefully seeing us through. Not withstanding the inclement weather our Camino is more...

    LIVE from the Camino Account of a very challenging day SJPdP to Roncesvalles (crazy weather)

    I am happy to read that you got safely to Roncesvalles. If you have a look around in albergues, or ask hospitaleros, you might find some additional clothing left by other pilgrims till you can get some yourself in Decathlon in Pamplona. There is a big shop not far from the railway station, but...

    What a first day you had, one you won’t forget. I am hoping your luggage gets delivered soon to take that burden away. Keep us posted. Ultreia

    Thank you for this, @garlicbread . Words to pay attention to should anyone be down in St Jean wondering which way to go in dodgy weather. I'm glad you made it in one piece and hope he luggage situation is resolved soon. Buen camino, peregrina! Isn't it? This way is seriously underrated.

    ...for your account. So many members or viewers just solicit feedback or view threads without engaging again. I can feel the discomfort in the weather, and I personally would have stopped at Valcarlos although, I expect it was busy today on your way to Roncesvalles. I am personally eager to...

    LIVE from the Camino Account of a very challenging day SJPdP to Roncesvalles (crazy weather)

    ...visibility looked very limited. It’s crazy because the day before yesterday it was beautiful and almost too hot! It shows how quickly the weather can change. That’s that! I am still having trouble sleeping and having some anxiety due to luggage and SIM card logistics. That’s the worst part...

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    Hola - in 2017 I met a young Italian woman pilgrim who had a similar event. She spent two days in hospital (first time in her life). It was about 5 days after the event when I met her and she still had significant bruising. So yes I totally agree - if the SJPP PO says/recommends the Valcarlos...

    Flooding rains on the spiritual variant?

    ...you have your poles and take your time. No point rushing....some of the variant had quite slippy rocks and that was after a week of sunny weather.....I don't think the path up to Armenteira should be too bad with the exception of two areas which are quite steep on rocky...

    LIVE from the Camino They are recommending the Valcarlos route tomorrow, how foolish would it be to go Napoleon?

    The thread is getting long and the weather on the passes of the Napoleon route will have improved within a short time. But there is something I'd like to point out. While it may have snowed in other parts of the Camino Francés at higher altitude, too, the situation between SJPP and Roncesvalles...

    ...direction) between Tarrega and Montserrat. It finishes up in Manresa. Day 9 sounds wonderful - how fortunate to meet Mariebelle. I found the CI wonderful. Was blessed with generally still warm weather. Windy at times. Very few fellow walkers - well just two, and one in the opposite direction! Tim
