    Camino in late March for two weeks with two 11 yr olds

    David thank you for this - it sounds really lovely and I am being persuaded! Could you possibly advise whether we should do the Coastal Route or the Central route - are they the same distance and how many days should we budget for? Also I am coming from the UK with the children. We could...

    I have always wanted to do the Camino - but how does the Portuguese compare as I know nothing about it!

    Camino in late March for two weeks with two 11 yr olds

    Given we will be potentially starting the weekend of Easter week, I may need to book more accommodation than I would normally? I read a lot on here about how busy the Camino gets during that week.

    Camino in late March for two weeks with two 11 yr olds

    Thank you for this - super helpful and very wise! Part of me wants to finish in Santiago for the kids' sake - it would be amazing for them to walk for two weeks and actually finish. For me I am not sure. I am sure to come back so we could do as you suggest and start far away. If we did this...

    Ideal route for a 15-day camino in October?

    Hello - I might replicate this in April with my children. Could you possibly share your route 'map' ie where you stopped and how many hours you walked each day? Would be helpful to me as I will have two 11 year olds in tow and am unsure how far we need to walk each day and also whether i need...

    Camino in late March for two weeks with two 11 yr olds

    Finally I am hoping to do the Camino next March/April. We have two weeks. Me and two children. I had hoped to do this 3 years ago but something got in the way. We are now fitter, stronger and its time. Any advice on which section of the Camino we might do? We come from the UK and will fly...

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    @saint Mike hola to you! Thanks for this too. I anticipate coming back another time to finish in Santiago so would welcome suggestions on a suitable start for the three of us bearing in mind the kids' ages and that it's just me (female) with them! We fly from gatwick and I'd like to avoid snowy...

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    Thanks @Raggy much appreciated. I am less worried about a certificate and finishing than enjoying our first camino. Where would you recommend we start bearing in mind I'm coming from London Gatwick in early April and I think should avoid the pyrenees area given how young the kids are. Thoughts...

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    This is v helpful advice. I.have been meaning.toask for advice about.where to start and whether the pyrenees would be safe in April but you've answered my question already. If we start midway then how does that affect the decision on whether we walked the whole camino? Sorry for my ignorance I...

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    I had thought the total camino was approx 28 days of walking. Therefore finish on day 14 and come back and do days 15 to 28 another time?

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    That was really helpful (and inspiring)! One question in response- how do you know places have space for you if you are playing each day by ear? I am a planner by nature so winging it doesn't come naturally!!!

    Camino in April with two 8 yr olds

    We have two weeks Easter holidays in 2020 and my two kids are now capable of walking 4-6 hours daily Ideally want to do the first half of the camino and come back another time to do the second half. Any advice? Am I mad doing it alone with two kids?
