    Starting in Pamplona Tuesday May 21,2013

    Hiya Annie, I made the decision to walk from SJPP instead of Seville this year, beginning May 14th Si, si I am here on the Camino Frances and have had wonderful walking days thus far....sure, it is muddy and rainy now, but hey...as you say... this is familiar territory and the landscape is green...

    Starting in 1 week, concerned about Pyrenees weather 2013!

    hiya falcon, It will be cold atop the mighty Pyrenees, but not snowing! I recommend a sleeping bag for your night in Roncensveax. I am now in Obanos (cold in the albergue) and the walking these past days has been FANTASTIC...mud and rain, yes...and one´s shoes are rarely clean...but all so...

    Vegetarian albergues/restaurants on the Camino Frances

    Thanks for the info. Wondering about the availability of organic dairy products in northern Spain... I am thinking it is likely that this would be the case with goat cheese in Basque region?

    Camino Slideshow.

    enjoyed those shots Wayfarer-especially the ones with lone figure on the long stretch of path....beautiful. Seemed quite chilly in May starting out. Did you travel with a sleeping bag at this time of year? and where exactly is, Taverna da Gaia? ...accommodation or just "refreshments"?

    Difference between Sunday Night Train and Lunea Corail?

    From what I can now gather post weaving through various sites, The Lunea Corail is more frequent and leaves from Austerlitz. You can book for couchettes (four or six to a birth) or a single seat : reclining chair. Not sure about single sleeping berths tho. The Night Train-leaving from...

    Larrasoaña

    Agree with this indignant posts. Had a few chuckles of remembrances too.. I walked last year in Summer. The last two days walking were fabulous (clear and sunny o'er the Pyrenees) and I arrived in Zubiri with a little zest and decided to walk to Larrasoana (plus Zubiri was getting crowded). Yes...

    Difference between Sunday Night Train and Lunea Corail?

    Hola! Part of the delights of planning a pilgrimage is exploring all the options... As I am arriving at CDG on a Sunday afternoon , I thought I would catch the Night Train or Lunea Corail. The Night train leaves from Montparnasse Station and the Lunea from Austerlitz Station a half hour...

    SJPP to Roncesvalles – in praise of the lower route

    I have never walked "the low road"..But I am now considering for my upcoming pilgrimage this June. At a brisk-ish pace, how many hours from SJPP to Valcarlos? I was thinking of walking through to Ronc. and stopping for a picnic somewhere...Is this route less physically taxing than the Napoleon?
