    Camino Del Norte - Pointers / Video

    @calamity37 - That is very impressive! At first I thought why would you walk the Camino in reverse?! Then the more I thought about it the more I thought how walking it in reverse is much more like the original pilgrims would have done, they would have had to walk back as well as walking to...

    Camino Del Norte - Pointers / Video

    Hey there, really appreciate the kind comments! I'm envious you will have an amazing experience! We took the same route for our first Camino and completed in 21 days. However that did include having to take some buses as there is simply too much ground to cover in that time. You have almost...

    Hi Maggie, day 14 was a cheat day for us to make up miles so we got the bus. I remember the scenery was breathtaking and very hilly.

    I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend :) Does anyone know by any chance whether at the campsite in Latas (2km from Somo) you need to bring your own tent or whether you can hire one there?

    Camino Del Norte - Advice / Tips

    Hi everyone! I hope you are all well. My friend and I were wondering if anyone has cycled parts of the Camino? Just mulling the idea over and wondered if anyone had hired a bike to cycle anywhere on the way and if they would recommend it? :)

    Thanks for the advice that's what we intend on doing after spending a night in Bilbao :) Love that city as we go to the music festival each year there and have met some great friends so thought it a good place to start the camino (well from Portugalette) :p
