    From far afield: Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela

    Hello Ivar Would it be possible to create a forum for pilgrims who set off for Santiago de Compostella on foot from far afield? I find that my pilgrimage from Trondheim/Nidaros to Santiago de Compostela (2010-2011) now resides in the forum, 'Other walks around the world'. I am an...

    Hi everyone, What's the craic? My name is Chris - from Ireland and currently planning my 2nd Camino. The plan is to walk from my front door to Dublin Port, hop on a ferry to Cherbourg, walk through France, and onward to Santiago via the Camino Norte. In Summer 2022, I had an amazing time...
  3. From my doorstep in Germany - a (very!) long term project

    I have been following the excellent thread from @sunflowerfunk, and it got me thinking. As others have pointed out I am one of the fortunate ones - I live in Europe. Specifically, Germany. Which, theoretically at least, is in walking distance from Santiago. And Germany has a 49 euro monthly...
  4. LIVE from the Camino Voie du Littoral (France)

    Having finished the Voie des Capitales from Mont Saint Michel and then the Connector over to Royan, I am heading off on the Voie du Littoral which is also known as Voie des Anglais or Voie du Soulac. It roughly follows the west coast down to Bayonne - hence being called the Littoral. The...

  6. Hi! Walking the Camino "from my door" in small stages - anyone else?

    Hi Everyone! I'm lucky enough to live just a few km from a Camino "feeder route" - the North Munich Jakobsweg (so St James's Way) and started walking it last spring. So far I've walked about 215km from my door to Kempten in the Allgäu. At Easter I'll walk the last 75km out of Germany to...

  8. LIVE from the Camino Camino from home (part II) Cherbourg to ??

    Since can't do a Live from pre-fix on " other routes in France" I am going to pop this in the nearest option. I cobbled together a camino route from home in Ireland.

  9. LIVE from the Camino Second time in SJPdP

    Today I arrived for the second time this year in SJPdP. Having walked from Rotterdam, Holland, to Vessem, Rocroi, Reims, Troyes, Nevers, I first came to this town on May 4th. On the 6th I walked away to Roncevalles to do the Camino Frances. After I reached Santiago, you cannot leave Galicia when...
  10. A Camino of blisters and broken things

    So I'm currently, finally, on the Camino from home I aways wanted to do, and oh man, it's so not going smooth during its first month. As expected, I had to do some (many...) very long stages to avoid high to exorbitant hotel rates. Up to 40kms. Many around 30. I also took public transport a few...
