    Baamode to Sobrado via Cruces?

    Hi Mananath, we walked Baamonde to Sobrado via Cruces in 2019. I have few photos to jog my memory, but I remember it as a very long day (Gronze says 32 km). First part was lovely forest paths, followed by a climb up to some wind turbines, then quite a long walk on blacktop, and finally a...

    Camino del Norte Accommodations

    We walked one year later than Trecile, 2019. We arrived in Deba just after the tourist office closed for the day (weekend), so I went to the police station. They were perplexed — no one had heard that they were supposed to help us register for the Albergue. But they were very nice, and told...

    Steep descent [ vertiginous] into Orio

    Thornley, this is the section where I truly thought my dear hubby might off me when we walked this section in ‘19, so exhausted was he when we finally got to the AP-8 at the bottom of the stone road.

    First day on Camino Norte

    Hi Jenny, So happy for you, walking another camino! My husband and I walked the Norte in June and July. We had also walked the Frances, and although we felt the Norte was a bit more strenuous (elevations not so high, but more numerous), we enjoyed it very much. We had nice weather the first...

    How well is The Norte marked?

    One dangerous alternative route we found that hasn’t been mentioned here— First day out of Irun, we took the high route over Mt. Jazkibel, very enjoyable, no problem. A bit further on, this upper route joins the lower route and then comes to a road going towards Pasaia. Across the road are red...

    Are you currently on the Norte and missing a sock?

    Ah! This post made my heart leap! But alas, that’s not the sock I’m missing. 😢 I think I left mine in Colunga:

    Avoiding drop off area before Laredo

    We’re on the Norte now but I’m scratching my head over “drop off area.” Can you provide more info? Can’t find anything on my photos... We chickened out on the beach walk from Berria to Noja but had a nice walk along the road.

    Deba Albergue Closed Sundays?

    Thanks Trecile! That was my best guess but wanted to be sure. You’ve saved us some steps!

    Deba Albergue Closed Sundays?

    I’m confused by the information in Gronze and Eroski, which states: “Horario: De abril a septiembre: 10:00-14:00 y 16:00-20:00 (domingos y festivos cerrado por la tarde) / Resto del año: 10:00-14:00 y las tardes de viernes y sábado 17:00-20:00). Si está cerrada atiende la Policía Municipal (tel...
