What routes do you suggest to do the Camino del Norte in 7 days? The camino doesn't have to end in Santiago.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
With 7 days, I would start in Irun (or nearby Hondarribia) and walk to Bilbao. This section is challenging, with some beautiful coastal scenery and includes the wonderful towns of San Sebastián and Bilbao.

You’ll find distances, elevations and accommodation options on Gronze. 😎

100% agree!

If you mean the section recommended above, NO.

You can only get a Compostela for walking the last 100km of any recognised route into Santiago.

It doesn’t matter how many kms you’ve walked up until that point - if you don’t walk the last 100km, and collect a minimum of two stamps a day - no Compostela.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-

Thank you.
