Thank you all so much for your very insightful comments and ideas.
Having google-mapped the Camino Aragon it looks absolutely stunning, and those first few days walking look very varied an beautiful, and hopefully much quieter :)
I really appreciate your comments though @Pelerina around the...
I'm hoping you wonderful forum members will be able to help me as you have before.
Am I mad to try and take my partner and 3 teenagers on a four day section of the Norte ? (probably Santilana to Llanes - short walking days).
