Camino del Norte
In 2015, four of us completed El Norte over six weeks, starting in San Sebastián. It seems strange to backtrack to Iran. We stayed @ an empty university dorm room arranged by the information office (circle with the small scripted ”i“), The larger cities have those. It’s a great city for two...- bobbogram

Quit again. Maybe for good.
“Failing to prepare is preparing to fail” is a well used axiom from a famous US basketball coach. Self inflicted problems, like bad shoes and flip flops or beginning during Europe’s current heat wave, are examples that come to mind. My first Camino was El Norte four years ago and we followed...- bobbogram

How well is The Norte marked?
Maybe because it was my first Camino, but I enjoyed it the most so far. It isn’t Dorothy’s Yellow Brick Road, but it’s close.

Does this path have plenty of hostels? Are they crowded?
Like any travel, seasonal and economic variations occur on the Camino. My six week 2015 El Norte in the spring was piggy backing on accommodations with friends we met early, but those same rooms were available on the Internet as well. Except for the first group Camino, my subsequent trek...- bobbogram

Does the so called "Camino del Norte" have anything to do with Santiago Apostol?
My first Camino was El Norte after watching the movie The Way and the YouTube video - . It was 2015 with three companions and an on line book, at age 66, was six weeks and 800 km. I did the first half of the Portuguese Camino (Lisbon to Porto) solo the next year and plan on finishing it soon. I...- bobbogram
