I find myself in Western Spain - close to Santiago. Looking to head east.
I was originally planning on making my way to St Jean to start, but as I am not doing this hike for religious reasons (more for a walking meditation) I think it might be wise to kill two birds with one stone, as it were, and walk my way into France, potentially much farther that St Jean.
My main concern is how well the trail is marked for those walking the other direction. While I am aware there are many people who do a round trip, these people have already seen the trail and will likely recognise if they have wandered off the trail. I have never been on the Camino before, so I am not sure what to expect.
Has anyone here ever walked the Camino Frances West to East? Any advice? Am I likely to miss diversions?
Any other thoughts on undertaking the route in reverse?
Thanks!
