    Camino Frances in reverse

    Hi I walked the Camino Frances east to west this year and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thinking of doing the reverse. If you get your passport stamped but in reverse can you still get your certificate? Cheers Dave

    Pilgrim Passport

    Hi, I've obtained my passport from The Confraternity of Saint James in readiness for my walk in March. Do I need to take it to the passport office in St Jean Pied de Port to get my first stamp for it to be valid for the certificate at the end. Or will the accommodation I stay at for the first...

    Mattress covers?

    I was intending to take an old single sheet to put over the mattresses but am also trying to save weight. Do most places supply a cover on the mattress or if not what is the condition of them?

    Over Thinking and Planning you Camino

    I have been planning my Camino now for over a year and leave St Jean Pied du Port on 20 March. Now here's a question. Do we put to much effort into forward planning the route and all that goes with it? Does this take away the spontaneity and the fun of the unknown with so much information...

    BBC Program "Celebs" on the Camino

    Just watched this and was so disappointed. Was this about the Camino or about them. I know it is spiritualist thing and those who walk it are there for their own reasons but it seemed to me almost the whole proramme was about the "celebs"! Hope the next 2 episodes are better.

    Hi, my friend and I walked in September and carried all our kit. Did not use the luggage transfer. Must admit I did take too heavier pack and learnt that this was a mistake. Will to make that one again when I walk th Camino starting at the end of March 2018. Cheers. Dave

    Wainwrights Coast to Coast UK Compared to Camino Frances

    Has any body walked both? I walked the C2C in 2015 and am starting the camino on March 23rd 2018. The C2C was a hard walk and at only 190 odd miles quite a lot less that the Camino Frances. I took 2 weeks for this so that does equate to 5 weeks for the Camino. Although I am now 65 I believe I...
