    Will the camino excitement die?

    As an amateur walker and atheist the Camino is a perfect journey - weather, signage, availability of cheap food and accommodation, beaches on the north make it all so simple and enjoyable. I'm sure it will be a popular route for non religious pilgrim for many years. Personally I've had only one...

    If you could only take one guidebook,

    We've used the confraternity guide for the northern routes and find it to be wrong and unclear. Some glaring mistakes and sometimes confusing. It is also out of date.

    If you could only take one guidebook,

    Locus map app has been a life saver for us. I downloaded a map of Spain for offline use and it maps the cdn route really clearly and provides alternatives.

We are very unclear about the route forward to Soto de Luiña - gronze.com, our english guide book, our online map and another Spanish site list quite a few variables.

    Norte this July...

    Our (2 peregrinos) first overnight stage of the camino is in Castro Urdiales at the start of next week... It'd be great to have an update on the accommodation status in the albuerge there.

    LIVE from the Camino Currently in Portugalete on the Northern Camino.

    We start our northern route on monday from bilbao and have decided to follow the north coast for as long as we can moving inland from Ribadeo. We think it will be nicer to follow the coast and also there will be less pilgrims on that route although for some unknown reason Baamonde seems to be...

    So many helpful comments!!! We are leaving in days and I have butterflies in my tummy (and sometimes an innate grin)!!! Starting to "worry" about what underwear to bring - loose baggy?
