Hi guys! I'm in Porto right now and booked into Vila do Conde tomorrow. I have a total of 11 days available for walking or 10 and 1 rest. I'm looking for the best way to spread the coastal mileage evenly. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
Hey guys!
I've seen Fisterra in the past and don't really want to go there again. I'm looking for the best itinerary from Santiago to Muxia in about 3 days? Thanks Peregrinos 😊
So, I understand the botafumeiro is only officially used during official celebrations, but I also gather that it's also used way more than this because of benefactors 'buying' the service. I was wondering which daily pilgrims mass I should attend in order to get the most chances to see it in...
Hey guys! I'm sure it's been adressed before but can't find anything on the subject. I know that on the norte, there's no official halfway point marker like in Sahagún on the francés, but anybody knows what is considered as the known halfway point? I'm in Llanes now nearing 400 km and I feel...
I was lloking at accomodations in Zarautz and Getaria and was may thinking of stopping at Getaria a little further instead and also going through Deba the following day and find a local albergue afterwards since Deba is booked out and or too expensive. Is Getaria a good choice over Zarautz?
Hi guys!
I'm set on walking the Norte starting Sept 1st but I have to land in Paris first. What do you think would be my best option for a good start?
I was thinking of flying to Biarritz and then get to St-Jean-De-Luz by train and from there, try to find some way to cross to Irun but I'm not...
Hi guys!
I'm looking to go back on the Camino this autumn, having walked already the Frances in 2019. I'd like to vary thing a bit and try a new way, so I was thinking about the Norte. I have all of September and October, but I was wondering if it's doable, considering Covid restrictions and...
Hi guys!
I'm scheduled to start from SJPDP on tuesday and the forecast is 90% rain :(
I'm not sure if the Napoleon route will be accessible. I'm starting to wonder if maybe I should spend one more night in St-Jean and start the following day (50% forecast) or just suck it up and go with it...
Hi again guys!
I was wondering, how do you carry your camera on the camino? I want mine accessible at all times so I don't want to stuff it in my pack and I'm looking for a way to strap outside somehow.
I bought a Peak Desing clip but it feels really unnatural when dangling from the belt or...
Hi guys!
Anybody brought a garmin GPS watch on the Camino?
If so, how did you manage to record your days? Regular recording or Ultra Trac? Enough charge for a day? Any trouble recharging? Is it worth it in the end?
A little technical maybe, but your input is always welcome !
Thank's,
Max
Hi guys!
I'll be arriving in SJPDP from Bayonne on Sept. 9 for my first Camino Frances. Knowing I can be there late morning / afternoon, do you have any suggestion on where I should spend my first night?
Thank's for your ever preciuous input!

Hi guys!
Newbie here! I've been reading quite a lot and cannot make up my mind precisely for my first Camino.
Knowing I'll be off from work from september 6th and have to be back in Canada by october 27th, I had the following schedule in mind:
Day 1 : arrive in Paris, then train to Bayonne...
