Still not sure if vdlp is a good idea April 2018
I walked the VDLP in May 2017. The weather was very rainy and we had to make some detours where rivers were overflowing and the trails impassable along with wading through others.

Poles to Sevilla
I use Black Diamond poles which fold into 3 sections so I put them in my backpack and carry them on. It has always worked for 4 Caminos traveling from the US, including to Seville.
