    Ranking the Caminos for a first-timer

    As it stands, my most likely route is from the most southern point in Spain to the most northern point, so Serrana-VdlP-Sanabres-Ingles-0.5 ruto do mar. Maybe substitute the primitivo for the sanabres. But in the last week or two a dark horse has emerged in the form of the Levante. It has...

    Ranking the Caminos for a first-timer

    Hi all, I started a thread in the Camino de Madrid sub-forum about whether to do that Camino or the CF, but after much helpful advice I've decided to restart the thread since I i) have a better idea of what I would like from a Camino now ii) think I didn't give other options enough...
