    Sarria to Santiago - 100 KMS

    It is a wonderful journey. I hope that you enjoy "The Galician Camino" as much as I do. Buen Camino.

    Starting Camino late Sept!

    HaHa! There are no 'half Caminos'. Sólo etapas usted no ha terminado, todavía. I hope when you return, you will agree with me.

    Starting Camino late Sept!

    Great time of year, IMO. Mostly good weather, the heat of Summer should be gone. Lots of great peregrinos. Pub crawl (pintxos and wine) in Logrono and Burgos, incomparable. Prepare for wind on the Meseta, and rain in Galicia, and one of the greatest experiences in life. Buen Camino.

    Giddy? Scared? Excited for sure.

    If you start, say the Camino Frances, from the Pyrenees, you can later pick up where you left off. A good reason to return. Many folks break up the Camino. Start on the Spanish side of the border and 11 days will get you a very good start. Maybe to Grañon or Villafranca Montes de Oca. From...

    Sorry you don't have more time for Santander. So much to see around there. Great cultural area as well. Enjoy your time in Spain. Buen Camino.

    First Timer - September 2016!

    Welcome, Maggie. Great time to Camino. Being from Vancouver, you'll be right at home in Galicia (weather-wise). Excitement and anxiety are part of the preparations. Before you know it you'll be a veteran peregrina. Keep the excitement and the joy with you everyday, and you'll have a great...

    My 1st camino may 2016

    Keep that attitude. Planning for a Camino is fun and challenging, lots to do, lots to learn. Keep focused. Have a great time. Buen Viaje.

    Help! First timer and daughter leaving Tennessee September 7th and still few questions

    I had heard of backpacks swiped from bus luggage compartments, so I had some concern for that, but generally no where else. For my own peace of mind I carried two large carabiner clips; one to fasten my pack to my wife's pack, and the other to fasten them to a pole or rail in the compartment...

    New to Camino

    Try Madrid to Venta de Baños (Palencia) to Burgos. Note: if you're looking on renfe.com, it will not show trains that are more than 60 or 90 days out. Use a date next week and enter Madrid* (all stations) to Burgos. Good luck.

    going the whole way May 2016

    Hanise, there are many of your fellow county people, both here on this forum and on F'book, who have Camino experience. I'm sure they can answer many of your concerns and questions. BTW, take care using the term 'the whole way'. You might, as I did, say it to the man who started walking at his...

    My First Camino in August and I feel lost...

    I agree with Annie. Because of your back and knee concerns, you might have some trouble and disappointment in some other stages. If you find you want more, you can take a train to another part of the Camino and walk a few more sections (a great way to see Spain), or travel to the Andalusia and...

    Intro and question

    Sally, welcome and Buen Viaje. We bought a lightweight duffle bag and packed our extra things in it, along with a flat box and tape. When we arrived in Pamplona, we unfolded the box, packed it with the things for after the Camino, and mailed it to relatives in Santander. I don't recall for...

    Hey DeadFred, we'll be in Pamplona in 37 hours. I'll leave a trail of bread crumbs for you. :D

    DeadFred, having been to Spain, I can tell you that they are no better at weather forecasting than the guy on your local news program. :rolleyes:
