    Enough time at Bilbao airport?

    We will be arriving at Bilbao airport at 13.55 and the bus leaves at 14.30 to Irun. Enough time to catch it, with Alsa? Any other options?

    Camino del Norte route

    We would like to do part of the CDN and have two weeks. Which would be the best part to do with accommodation choices (we prefer own room). Would like best scenery. How does this route compare to the Frances, which we have done in the past.

    Off soon!

    well last night in our own bed. Travel to Stansted tomorrow and fly to Oviedo Tuesday morning. Then walking to Escamplero for first night. Nervous but excited. Have booked most of accommodation after first couple of nights. Bit worried about the weather though! Anyone there now or just returned?

    Is There Anybody Out There?

    I just wondered if there was anyone on the Primitivo at the moment and if so, do they have time to provide an update. We go out to Oviedo on 6 June and I was wondering what the weather was like at the moment, particularly higher up. Just trying to decide what to pack, well as little as...

    Where to stay

    can anyone recommend anywhere to stay after c. Baleira. If we walk to castroverde it will be 10km to walk, then 22km to Lugo. I would like to take the two days for this and wondered if there was anywhere to stay around Castroverde even if we have to go a couple of km off track? Would like our...

    Just An Idea!

    We will be flying to Asturias airport at the start of June and should land at 10am. We want to start walking that day as we have previously spent time in Oviedo. We will have the rest of that day and a further 9 days to walk to Lugo. Has anyone any suggestions about whether it is worth...

    Alternative accommodation

    we are planning our camino for June and just wondered if there was accommodation along the way such as bed and breakfast or pension, rather than albergue? As we have less time this year we will be walking further so I would like to book some rooms along the way.

    Birds

    As avid birdwatchers can anyone tell me if there are many to see between Oviedo and Lugo. Thinking of perhaps taking it a bit slower and not walking as many miles each day to really savour the views, etc. Early to mid June probably.

    Weather and advice

    We are planning on walking from Oviedo to Lugo and wondered what the weather would be like in June or July. Just about to book flights. Also can anyone advise best way to get from Lugo to Santiago as think will return to U.K. From Santiago. Flights are at 10.40am, or would it be easier to...

    Here we go again!

    Well, last year we did Portuguese camino from Porto to Santiago, year before SJPDP to Leon and year before Leon to Santiago. We said that was enough walking for the time being, but the bug gets you. We are now thinking of doing Primitivo, or at least part of it. We have at most 2 weeks, so...

    The dreaded socks

    For the last two years I have worn 1000 mile double layer fusion socks for my two caminos. I have suffered with many blister and my feet get so hot very quickly. I do change my socks regularly during the day and have used Vaseline. This year I am not going to use Vaseline. We are walking...

    Accommodation from Porto

    we are flying to Porto on 27 July to start our walk to Santiago. Having read on the Frances forum about accommodation getting booked up quickly and quite early in the day, can anyone advise if this is the same on Portuguese please? We are going along the coast to Villa do Conde and then inland.

    Train Help

    Hi I understand that instead of the train running from Bayonne to SJPDP it is a bus due to repairs. Does anyone know if you can pay on the bus, I assume it does go from train station?

    Nervous but excited

    Well we start from SJPDP on Friday and cannot wait. Last year we walked from Leon to Santiago, so doing other half. Have been looking at the weather and starting to panic. Anyone there now how hot is it really? Looking at temps seems boiling and I am panicking!!!

    Blister / toe nail advice

    Well it is one week until we begin our camino from SJPDP and I have a toenail problem. Some time ago (months) I dropped something on my big toe. It only bruised and I thought that was that. Last week I noticed that as the nail has grown it is actually starting to come off but not enough that I...

    Train

    We arrive atBiarritz airport at 17.05. I have looked up the train/bus and if we get 17.57 to Bayonne and then bus at 18.06 (as no train the new) is this viable? looked at expressbourricot but this is only cheap if a few share so train cheaper. Thanks

    Keen Sandals

    Hi walked fron Leon to Santiago last August and this July we are going from St Jean to Leon. Last year I sufered blisters and plantar fasciitis and ended up buying some hiking sandals. They did the trick and I was able to walk 15 plus miles per day but they did not have enough arch support...

    Biarritz to St Jean

    Hi We are looking at starting from St Jean on 3 July this year. I have been looking at flights from the UK and think we will fly Stansted to Biarritz. As the flight does not get in until just after 5 pm I thought we would use Bourrico Express but their site does not start until March. Does...
