    What is the most intimidating aspect of walking the Camino Frances on your own?

    Nothing really mate. I’ve been twice now and it’s actually all straight forward. Only concern I had was walking out of Lisbon and thought ‘what if I get injured’ as no one else was around. Relax, have fun, enjoy. And take care of those feet.

    Got advice? Share it please!

    Take your time, pack super super super super super light, and most of all, be prepared for some setbacks. I’d also say lookup and enjoy the scenery, something I regret not doing more.

    Albergue in Cizur Menor

    I don’t recall much about my Camino 3 years ago - but I recall this place was excellent. Gardens, beds, all good. Skip Pamplona and def stay there.

    Single Use Plastics

    It’s such a challenge - thank you for doing your part. The amount of litter was mind blowing. What a pity.

    Single Use Plastics

    Well, people could not bring single use plastic bags. And not litter. Ever. It’s quite simple. I’m not to offer solutions.

    Single Use Plastics

    Love your work! I didn’t even mention single use plastic straws - it’s a nightmare. Those people that drink the global brand of cola, always with a single use plastic straw..... unforgivable.

    It is just extraordinary. What can we do? I was shocked and appalled on the CF.

    Single Use Plastics

    So, so, so hard. Environmental concerns rate rather low on most peoples radar, the Camino no exception. Honestly the rubbish drove me mad on CF. It tainted my experience somewhat ( although heading off on Camino Portuguese in 2 weeks time)... It would be preferable if some alburgue owners took...

    Single Use Plastics

    Not really - single use plastics should not be placed in general rubbish bins. They can be recycled with other plastics. If placed in general trash they end up in landfill.

    Single Use Plastics

    Hi. I’d like to make a comment about the use and disposal of single use plastics on the CF.
