    How to get to Camino Ingles

    If you are flying to Madrid then just get a connecting flight to Santiago de Compostela and then the bus to Ferrol. You can get there by 5 PM and have a restful night and start the next day. I've done this twice. PM me for any details.

    Trekking poles on the Inglés

    Yes - they will be helpful. I actually think that properly used they are helpful even on flat terrain. The Ingles is not flat :)

    Camino Ingles in August 2019?

    I have walked it twice that time of year. Mornings can be chilly but it can get quite warm later in the day. Depending on your orthopedic conditions be aware that there are some hills to climb.

    Starting the Ingles on 18 Feb...

    Based on the description of your first Camino, the Ingles should be a walk in the park. Mind you, there are some tough hilly portions, but nothing like crossing the Pyrenees.

    Camino Ingles - How Busy

    I have done it twice in the summer and very sparsely traveled. No problem at all finding a place to stay.

    My first trip... apprehensive and excited

    I have done the Ingles twice and loved it. There tend not to be a lot of people and it provides lots of time for contemplation and thought. I can't imagine some one not loving it.

    English route query

    To Camino Ingles Or not Too.

    I've done the Ingles twice and loved it. The scenery is a wonderful combination of city, small town, village and nature. It is hilly and parts of it are somewhat difficult especially if you do some hill training. I stayed in paid establishments the entire route and not in alburgues, but that...

    Bruma to Santiago

    I've done the Ingles twice and stopped at Sigueiro both times. I would never have considered walking all the way from Bruma to Santiago unless there was an urgent need.

    20 KM days possible on the Ingles?

    I have done the Camino Ingles twice - both in five days. I did not find the distances too long but there are some steep areas as mentioned in the preceding posts. Having said that, the Ingles can be walked in a longer time frame than five days to keep the distances shorter as some have...

    Ingles -vs- other short route options?

    I f you want five days of generally solitary walking but with beautiful surroundings and more than adequate support then the Camino Ingles can't be beat. No crowds, nice weather (in the summer) and very interesting range of geography and local color. Also, for whatever it's worth, it is a...

    Camino inglés 2016 - advice needed

    I've done the Ingles twice in July and deserted both times - for whatever that's worth. Getting back to Santiago from Ferrol is very easy: from the main bus terminal a ride will cost you about 9 euros and takes an hour.
