My daughter and I started in Irgun early September 2016 and arrived at Oviedo about a week later. It turned out to be an ideal time of year on the Primitivo. A few hot days of road walking ( shit walking as my daughter would say) and one day of rain. Otherwise nice weather with beautiful clear...
Sorry to hear it. My daughter and I did the Norte to Primitivo to Santiago in 2016 when I was 72. But I am use to doing 1000 to 1500 m per day here in the Mountains of Maine and New Hampshire. At my age training is everything. Also carry a simple Sawyer Star water filter.
My daughter (38) and I (73) walked the Norte from Irun to Santander and the Primitivo from Oviedo to Santiago in September 2016. Spectacular scenery along the Bay of
Bisque and through the mountains on the Primitivo.
Must see towns: San Sebastian, Gretaria, Guernica, Bilbao, Oviedo, Lugo...
