    SJPDP to Roncesvalles. Stop in Valcarlos? Or go the Napoleon Route?

    I enjoyed walking the Napoleon route in the mist and fog. From Orisson onward it’s not much of a climb if I remember correctly. Roncesvalles was not my thing . If I would do it again I would push on to the next village.

    My first Camino

    Hi Steve, it will be my first camino as well starting from SJPP on May 14th. I have been watching the weather and it can still get cold in the Pyrenees.

    A Gift of Time-Ponferrada to Sarria
