    3 days to go!

    Our Camino Frances started in 2012 and was walked in stages each year until we completed in 2016. Each time we returned we were older and a little wiser. It was a question of time / holiday limits.

    Mansilla de la Mulas to León: why bother?

    Exactly what we did because J.Brierley said we could! We finished in Léon that year. If we'd not caught that bus I would never have sat next to a lovely lady who told me how to buy a senior rail card. Next day we bought our senior cards and very cheap train tickets to Santander. That lady was...

Bus back to Santiago. (This will not qualify you for a compostela at the end although if you bus to Muxia then walk...

  12. FLEUR

    Stopped at Pamplona

    Don't worry. You sensibly made your choice but now you have expérience and that will help on futures stages.

    Don’t underestimate cold in Pyrenees

    June 2012 à beautiful walk to Orrisson, hot sunny day. Next day a howling gale for our walk to Roncesvalles. We saw a French man stop and put socks on his hands. It was hard to stop without getting blown over. The concrete bunker/ shelter was like a United Nations refuge, pilgrims queuing to...

    Hostel Bayonne

On arrival another pilgrim had arrived before us, the 4 beds had to be stretched to 5, my niece drew the short straw and slept on a mattress on the crowded floor...

    My first camino - report of the walk September 2019

    @brenda Timmins Go for it! It sounds as though you've planned well and will have the confidence to fulfill your dream. In 2016 en route to SdC from Sarria I met a lady of almost 80 who'd planned to do the walk with her sister. The sister unfortunately broke an ankle before they were due to...
