    From Bilbao to Santiago via Camino do Mar and Ingles

    Yes, indeed, the Norte is my favorite. I see that you visited Playa De Xakoneta also. Wasn't that a lovely place! The beauty of the Norte and wonderful local people I get to meet along the way always pull me back to the same route. This time, I really tried to walk another route but at the...

    From Bilbao to Santiago via Camino do Mar and Ingles

    Oh David, you are so kind. I walked Ingles last fall, so I have a few places I liked, but new to do Mar. This is very helpful. Thank you! There were two hotels I stayed last year, but not listed on your list are: "Hotel Gran of Ferrol" and "Hotel Crisol de Las Rias" in Miño. Hotel Crisol...

    From Bilbao to Santiago via Camino do Mar and Ingles

    Hello, Yes, Camino Ingles would be a good one for your granddaughter. It's mostly flat and lovely. I walked last year and uploaded my days to this forum. If you like, you may search the below title. Ingles is toward the last a few days because I walked it in 4 days. Live from Camino del...

    From Bilbao to Santiago via Camino do Mar and Ingles

    LIVE from the Camino Now (27 Nov 2021) on Via de la Plata

    Hi Nigel, I just walked Norte via Ingles. I had posted photos and daily stories. Many kind people on this forum read my humble post and cheered me on. That made me feel like I was walking with a big Camino family. Don't feel alone because we will be thinking of you. Mera

    Camino Norte in January

    I just walked the Norte. Many albergues I passed by were already closed. Many small hotels I stayed said that they would be closing for the winter. Many bars went out of the business after being hit by the pandemic. You will have to carry extra food and really warm clothes (or even a...

    New here - and excited!

    Thanks! It's my first laugh of the day since yesterday. I am here at the Madrid airport. My first time flying Iberian Airlines, their online process was very annoying or impossible. I was beginning to think either they are still using DOS programming language or the web designer is from the...

    Oh as an added bonus, the Holy Year of 2021 is extended till 2022. Whoever completes walking the Camino during the Holy Year gets a total parden of all sins that he or she ever commited. The last Holy Year was in 2010, and the next one will be in 2027, 2032 ... so on. Please don't think that...

    New here - and excited!

    Welcome! I just finished Camino del Norte via Camino Ingles. I switched to Ingles after arriving at Ribadeo because from there on it's walking inland all the way. Blisters don't have to happen. I haven't gotten a blister during my last 6 Caminos. I believe each person has to find out what...

    Lost & Found Lost glasses Friday Sept 24, 2021, between Zubiri and Pamplona

    Once my daughter lost her cell phone. I went to the police station thinking that I can easily find it should they had it. To my big surprise they had boxes and boxes of cell phones, and furthermore boxes and boxes of keys. I wondered how those pilgrims managed when they got home.

    It's my favorite route. So beautiful! Good sea foods. I constantly dream of being there. I will also be walking in October. Buen camino!

    Camino Del Norte starting 3rd September 2021

    Buen Camino! I am hoping to do it in October. I already postponed twice. El Norte is my favorite. BTY, there is a great Vietnamese restaurant within a block from the Biarritz Train Station, that is if you enjoy Vietnamese food.

    CF or Norte?

    I just completed the Norte. It has everything you are looking for and more. The beauty makes your spirit high and heart tender. Much less crowded than the CF. Whichever you choose I wish you a Buen Camino.
