Camino del Norte video

Anyone considering whether or not to walk the Camino del Norte might find it useful to view this video of my walk in 2016 to get an idea of the fabulous scenery and camaraderie.
Enjoyed the video; How do the inclines compare to that coming out of SJPP and over the Pyrennes? I really want to do it, but have read numerous stories of its difficulty?

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. I haven't waked the Camino Frances, so I can't really say how they compare from direct experience. However, Irun is futher North than SJPP and more in the 'foothills' of the Pyrennes, so I imagine the initial incline is perhaps longer and steeper coming out of SJPP. The start of the Camino del Norte is still quite a challenge though as it climbs up Mount Jaizkibel, which peaks at 547metres.
