Hi,
I am planning to do the Camino Frances, at last, this coming autumn. It seems that the last 100ks or so can be very crowded even in the second half of October so I am wondering if there are any alternative routes from Sarria or further back say from Ponferrada to Santiago which do not require an inordinate amount of extra distance. Anybody got any ideas or indeed has tried this, it would be great to have your opinion - maybe someone would like to pioneer a new route with me. It is not that I don't want to be with other pilgrims, far from it, but it does seem that that final bit could do with a little less pressure. Richeyboy.
