- Time of past OR future Camino
- booked to do Lugo-Santiago June 2018
Hello, I have just returned home having hiked 296 miles of the Camino Frances from Saint Jean. I came home early due to a serious blister and the incredible heat at night time in the alberges. I don't really get blisters nowadays after years of trial and error. Unfortunately this time, one day, I tried some gel metatarsal pads for the pain I get in the balls of my feet when doing through hikes. Never again! one of these pads caused a huge blister on the ball of my foot, the other i had taken out earlier due to discomfort. After 8 days of pain with the blister, limping along with the help of ibuprofen I gave in, and used Alsa bus to efficiently get me to SCQ to fly home.
I am planning on returning in Sept but with my wife. My wife walked the Primitivo with me in 2019. She now has some back issues which limit her walking distance. Our plan is, Sept because it might be a pleasant temperature, and to walk from Porto 7 or 8 days along the coastal route. Limiting her distance to about 10 miles each day. My question is which bus companies or train companies give easy transportation from points along the coastal route back to Porto ?? Many thanks.
