The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Hi I dont see my name now and it was there for sep/oct

There is no need to worry. Starting mid October many albergues do close for the winter and a well earned rest. However there are many that stay open.
Click this link for a listing of those which were open during winter 2015/2016.

Buen camino!
 
Hi there - due to start from SJPDP on October 9th. Currently two Stuarts, with a provisional Black Duck and Mad Magyar (it does make sense, honest)
 
Yes sorry its there .....thanks .
I understand you may not have found it originally as I changed the inherited list. I placed peregrinos in groups according to their approximate starting time. Buen Camino.

I believe you.. it makes sense like my online moniker. I've added the two Stuarts and two question marks. I am sure you will have an astounding time. Buen camino.

Fiona & Trevor and Rachael & Ginnie departing SJPdP 24th September.

Well, I have now booked our flights and accommodation in Paris pre-Camino, and we'll now be arriving SJPdP 21 September for a 22 September departure
Or maybe we'll take our time and depart 23rd...
I guess we'll see when we get there

I've amended your date to the 23rd. Could be good to look around St Jean befre departure. Buen Camino
 
Eve, I've put you in the group "sometime in September". If you decide on a date and place to start I can amend your entry. Have an incredible time. Buen Camino.
 
Could be good to look around St Jean befre departure. Buen Camino
Thanks.
That's what I thought too, after reading a number of posts on the forum suggesting that SJPdP was a lovely town, with a lot to see.
Also, we'll be training down from Paris via Bayonne, and arriving fairly late in SJPdP.
I'm sure that we could organise all we need (credentials, transport of non-camino gear to Santiago), but why rush

Maybe someone will start one for that period. I will be walking during the lead up to your dates and not able to maintain such a list. Perhaps there may be one started by someone else? Or alternatively the calendar on this site could be used?

I don't mind adding your dates to the end of this list if you would like me to do so. I am worried that it would not be a true reflection of forum members who have nominated their starting dates and places in that time period.
Let me know. I am sure you will have an astounding time. Buen Camino!

Thank you Nonami for this thread. I begin the Camino Frances in Roncesvalles on Friday, September 2! I walked this route in 2012, I walked from Porto to Santiago in 2013 and I walked from Le Puy to St. Jean Pied de Port in 2014.
I'm grateful and so excited to be returning!
 
Hi, welcome back. According to my wife it's a nice time of the year to walk the Camino Frances.

Hi There Nonami I (Joan) will be starting from St. Jean September 11th

 
Hello! I'm starting from SJPP on 22nd September. My first Camino! Have given myself 5 weeks.
You are on the list, Nancy walker. You will have an astonishing time. 5 weeks seems to be a reasonable amount of time to get to Santiago ...I hope it is because that's all the time I have as well. Buen Camino.
 
Hi Hi! I am walking on the 1st of September from St Jean.....excited and scared in equal measure.
Welcome to the forum EmmaE. Your apprehension will reduce significantly after a couple of days of walking and the elation will increase. Buen camino

Ok, Camino Bill, I will add you right now. Have an awesome time. Buen camino.
 
feeling a wee bit intimated about this solo camino
Fairly normal to feel that way. There will be many liked minded people around to talk to if you wish at that time of year. There is, in my opinion, a reasonable amount of "we are all in it together"camaraderie that takes away that fear.

Hi Nonami, Jacky and Kat have a starting date of 4 September, can't wait, look forward to meeting others along the way
 
Hi,
Craig & Jackie, arriving St Jean 1st September.

Looking into booking transfer from airport to St Jean.

Welcome to the forum, PapaSmurf76. Quite a few people on the list starting on 2nd September so maybe someone there wanting to share transfer costs. You will have a magnificent time. Buen Camino.
 
September 10 - Mimi (St Jeam)
 


September 2 - Burgos to Leon or Astorga, depending on how well I get on and how many rest days I need. I'm taking it slowly as I have a damaged knee. Sad that this means I'm unlikely to find a camino family to walk with, but trying to remember that this will mean that I will meet lots more people along the way.
