    The Meseta; Burgos to Leon

    Camino prep Q's - last minute camino please help!

    The Meseta; Burgos to Leon

    Respect! You had your experience and conclusion - and this is the whole point! I was 2 days ahead of you last year. I started in Burgos on the 19th- and ended up in Santiago 25 days later. For me- the Meseta was divine! I loved every step! In 2019 i’ll return- and will do the Meseta one more...

    Newbie with questions for the French Way

    Don’t worry too much about distances. You seem quite fit- so my advice is: listen to your body. I spent 25 says last year (May-June) from Burgos to Santiago. I was slighly ower weight and not fit at all- but completed with a smile on my face. I did about 20 k each day- and had 2 resting days...

    Totally agree with you. I did my camino this year (may-june) and i loved the Meseta. Hontanas and Castrojeriz was awesome!

    feedback

    Hi, How about Burgos to Leon? Both very nice towns paced with history. Then you will have the lovely meseta with small pittoreske villages on the route. I flew in to Bilbao and took the bus to Burgos.
