    Wise Pilgrim App - question

    No, end of stage or train station certainly doesn't make sense for these two towns 😂

    Where to buy hiking sandals in Logrono?

    Hi Everyone. I'm here now and in desperate need of some new hiking sandals. I currently have Teva Toachi sandals and am looking for something similar. Any idea where I could go in Logrono to buy something suitable? Thanks in advance.

    Thank you so much 🙂

    Phone range btwn SJPDP & Orisson?

    I would like to use the pre-booked accommodations if possible (first few nights). I never suggested that starting in SJPDP is the "real deal". It is just a really beautiful part of the way, and when I walked in 2018 it was wet and the views were obscured by cloud and fog. I have waited 5 years...

    Phone range btwn SJPDP & Orisson?

    I am planning on getting a Sim card in Pamplona. We fly into Barcelona, have booked train to Pamplona for 2 nights before going to SJPDP to start walking. We have already pre-booked the first few nights accommodation, including Borda. Yes, I could choose to forego those bookings and monies...

    Phone range btwn SJPDP & Orisson?

    So, 8 weeks out from the day we leave, I developed Achilles tendonitis. The physio says rest, so Ive lost my final two months training 😏. At this stage it's all looking a bit questionable, but I'm determined to still give it a go. If I start walking and find the steep incline too painful, am I...

    Longest sections of Camino Frances without facilities

    I got caught out a couple of times, needing to pee along the way where there were no facilities or trees for cover. This time I will be taking a she-wee type of device to make those moments a little easier if it happens again.

    2023 festivals

    In 2018 there was a medieval festival in Hospital de Orbigo on the first weekend in June. We flew into Madrid, hired a car and drove there, enjoyed the festivities for two days, drove the car to Pamplona, then got a taxi to SJPDP to start our Camino. We absolutely loved it. Buen Camino 🙂

    Do I need to pre-book in Puente la Reina?

    Thank you. I did wonder about staying there. It looks like a good option

    Thanks for your reply. Much appreciated

    Do I need to pre-book in Puente la Reina?

    Thanks. Yes, good point. I got too focussed on "pre-book now or not" LOL. For Puente la Reina, I'll wait and see how busy it is over those first few days and take it from there. Last time (2018) we usually called ahead and pre-booked at lunchtime each day as we were a group of 4 people then...

    Do I need to pre-book in Puente la Reina?

    My partner and I will be walking the Camino Frances in 2023, starting June 3rd. As we don't want to rush, I will book accommodation for the first few days in advance as I believe we may have trouble getting beds in these sections. I'm not sure about Puente la Reina though - can accommodation...

    30 days - from St Jean Pied de Port to Santiago - is it possible without stress?

    Have a wonderful time, whatever you choose. The walk over the Pyrenees from SJPDP is tough but spectacular and rewarding (just my opinion of course). Perhaps you could start there, and just see how you go. At some point if you think you will be short of time, then get a bus for a few sections...
