    All prebooked - yes or no ?

    Hi Howie A few years ago, when I was walking in Patagonia, I met a guy who was spending the day organising his next couple of weeks to the last detail, whereas I spent the day pottering and watching the world go by. Several days later we met again by chance. I had enjoyed my loosely...

    St. Jean or Roncesvalles

    I did it at the same time as Dawn (Hi Dawn - glad to hear you are still around - how is the walking?) and agree! I wouldn't have missed the napoleon route to Roncesvalles for the world. It is hard, though and so is the second day, but with six weeks you have plenty of time to catch up. I would...

    First Time Trip ?'s

    Everything is well marked for the first week or so of the walk and by the time that they get a bit casual about it you will have got the hang of how the Camino works and shouldn't have any problems with a bit of common sense. I did the same walk as you are planning from mid May to mid June this...

    Overcrowded?

    which route from SJPdP?

    Thanks both! It sounds as though the Route Napoleon is favourite. I won't have a tent, but otherwise I'm well protected and like to get off main roads when I can. I'm sure that it will all make sense on the day!

    which route from SJPdP?

    I gather that there are two routes from St Jean PdP to Roncevalles. One seems to follow the main road and the other (called the Napoleon Route?) goes on smaller tracks via Huntto. Does anyone have any recommendations as to which one will be the most fun - bearing in mind that it will be my first...

    camino aragones

    Hi all In May I intend to do the Way, but since I am visiting friends in Toulouse, was considering starting at Lourdes and going via Cauterets, Panticosa, Jaca etc. Has anyone done it, how long is it likely to take to cross the mountains and would I be advised to take a tent and safety...
