    Which German guidebook for Norte: Yellow or Red

    IMHO the version of Conrad Stein is very,very good ! I used it in 2006 and saw at their website a lot of comments of people with some very good advices about the route, etc. Good Camino,

    Camino del Norte - Starting point

    Evan, Maybe this will help you: http://www.gronze.com/camino-de-santiago/mapas-generales.htm and .......... The Norte starts at Irun (not in San Sebastian) at the bridge between Hendaya and Irun! First track to SS is great!! Paul

    Starting El Camino del Norte on 10th May

    IMHO: crossing the bridge to Irun gives you 2 options : directly on your right there are some shops AND a simple hotel ( don't remember the name!). There's also an albergue in Irun run by the association of pelgrims in Irun: if you google you will find them! PB: it's less then a 5 minute walk...

    marek, The name is : Jacobsweg/Kustenweg of Michael Kasper & Michael Moll. Edition via Conrad Stein Verlag. ISBN 978-3-86686-071-1 Excellent guide (which I used myself in 2006) when you can manage the german language! Good luck! paul

    Storks?

    Lillian! That elevator.....I did not know what I saw there! For all the others, here's a picture: Have a great time and don't forget to put your shoes off and walk a part along the sea-side! Tip: do the last part of the stretch Ribadesella to La Isla along the beach. Via La Isla you can...

    Irun-Bilbao what's wrong with it? :S

    Dave, Fully agreed with this! The North Route is fabulous, great and....tough but also our favorite above the CF en the Vezelay-route that we walked.

    Hondarribia -> San Sebastian

    Karen, I thought that the distance is about 24 km so San Sebastian can be done in one day. Don't know what you mean with beginner.....not trained or the first time? Greetings, paul

    Irun-Bilbao what's wrong with it? :S

    Elzi, For an impression take a look at my pictures at the photo's in the section of the North-route: camino-del-norte-blogs-photo-album/topic5618.html . I really don't know what's wrong with that section, besides the not-so-good wheather we had. Some part of the stretch is on asphalt....but if...

    Options for Camino del Norte

    Yes, definitely.....It's great there! There's one option to avoid that routing: we took the other side of the river. Also not very beautiful but better than the other side! We also took the bus out of Bilbao to the border of the city (direction Portugalette). Paul Good luck with your choice!
