    Stupid question but worth a try

    A fellow pilgrim once told me that if you and your girlfriend want to get married, walk the camino together. If you are still together at the end, then yes, get married!

    Where is the train station in Somport?

    Hi there. I walked the Aragones a few years back and really loved it. As you have read, it's by bus up to Somport. We arrived early, and headed down to Canfranc. Views were fantastic.

    Is a winter Camino Aragones doable ?

    Hi Rebecca, I walked the Camino Aragones in early September. At Arres, I looked at the signing-in book for pilgrims and found that even over the Christmas period last year and early in the New Year, there were walkers. So it seems that it is very do-able in winter. Apart from Somport down to...
