    Just back from the Camino Ingles

    Good question! For my first Camino I wanted to get the Compostela-- that was important to me when I was planning it, and it turned out that collecting sellos along the way was one of the highlights of the journey. It made it a totally different experience than any other and got me to go in...

    Just back from the Camino Ingles

    I just returned from walking the Camino Ingles and wanted to circle back to this forum to post some thoughts on it, in hopes it might provide useful to others. Unlike many on this forum, I hadn’t ever really thought seriously about doing the Camino, although I had heard about it. But when my...

    Best route for quick one week trip- easy in/ easy out.

    I'm glad to hear this was a useful thread for someone besides me. I was so grateful for all the thoughtful responses I received. I really struggled with this decision and changed my mind more than once before selecting the Camino Ingles. I still wonder if perhaps the Camino Frances...

    Thank you for responding. Your description of the French Way seals it for me. I think I'll do the Via de la Plata instead (although the section you describe sounds lovely). No worries, I'll be respectful and thoughtful of other pilgrims.

    I'm still trying to choose my route for the 6 days I'll have to walk the Camino in early June (wish it was longer but I have work and family obligations....). Because I'm an avid hiker, I'm not worried about mileage or hills. I've decided to book hotels so competing for a bed will not be a...

    Thanks for the great suggestion! The elevation profile looks good: nice and hilly. And likely much quieter.

    I've figured out how to squeeze in 6 days of hiking the Camino, but I've had a tough time deciding which route to take. The Camino Frances (Sarria- Santiago) has been recommended far more than any other trail, in part because of my short time frame. I've read that it's the most popular route...

    Storing luggage in Madrid or Santiago prior to Camino

    Thank you everyone for all the helpful information! You did my homework for me. I have lots of options. I appreciate it!

    Storing luggage in Madrid or Santiago prior to Camino

    We're sneaking in 6 days on the Camino Ingles after a work trip to Madrid. We'll have business attire that we want to store for a week while we're on the Camino. Does anyone know who might securely store our luggage for a week? We don't want to lug around more suitcases than necessary...

    Thanks to everyone who replied with suggestions! I am going to 'study up' tonight on all the routes mentioned and book my flights!

    Best route for quick one week trip- easy in/ easy out.

    I'd love to hike on the Camino for a few days. But we don't have much time- my husband is working in Madrid through the afternoon on Thurs/June 4 . We could catch a train/ plane that evening. We have to be home in the US by June 12. That leaves barely one week to get to/from the trailhead and...
