    Pilgrim in Roncesvalles in shorts

    I'll look out for you Mary Sue. There'll be two of us, my wife is joining me for the first 10 days. If you arrive on 23rd and get a chance, let me know what the weather's like. If the weather is good enough we may even go straight to Valcarlos on the first day.

    Pilgrim in Roncesvalles in shorts

    This is a very useful and timely warning for me and I'm grateful for it. So many thanks. I will be arriving in SJPdP on Thursday 24th March. I'd be grateful if anyone on the ground there could update me on conditions a day or two before so I can plan ahead.

    Exos 46 Pack and water access...

    I'm starting my first Camino Francés on 24-25 March from SJPDP. I do quite a bit of hill walking and have a 2L hydration bladder which works fine for this purpose. However I think the Camino is quite different to what I'm used to. When hill walking the weight of my backpack is not critical so...

    Is anyone else having problems with the eCamino App?

    I purchased the eCamino App (based on John Brierley's book) last week in advance of my first Camino which begins on 24th March. It seems to be useful but I'm having problems with it. The app won't let me access it off-line. Also, every time I open the app it tells me it's my first time using it...

    eCamino - practical and spiritual guide book for smartphones

    What backpack did you use?

    I'm starting the Camino in late March. I'm just back from my first hike with my new Berghaus Explorer 40L. I did a lot of research on before choosing this one. I can't fault it. It's fully adjustable for your size and load. Plenty of pockets, access from the bottom to a separate zipped...

    Advice please: SJPdP or Valcarlos?

    Jozero, many thanks for your advice. I'm looking forward to the walk to Roncevalles and wouldn't want to skip it. Three hours seems fine for the walk to Valcarlos. I'll play it by ear.

    Advice please: SJPdP or Valcarlos?

    My wife and I will be arriving in SJPdP on Thursday 24th March 2016 between 1pm and 2pm. We intend to walk together as far as Logrono by Thursday 31st March (following John Brierley's guide). We want to take a day off on Friday 1st April and then my wife has to return home on Saturday 2nd...

    Hi Fred, my wife and I are planning to start at SJPdP on 25th March. How do we add this to the March Calendar?

    walking the Camino Frances March 26 2016 will we be able to cross route Napoleon?

    Rebecca, my wife and I are starting from SJPP on 25th March. We are resigned to the fact that the route Napoleon will be closed but if it turns out to be open I will try to remember to let you know.
