Good on you. I’ve looked at this one; even bought the guide, but haven’t ever heard from someone doing it. Do you have a blog or another way to follow it. Maybe report back through this site. It looks amazing but , from Australia, I just haven’t been able to organise myself. And you have the same name as my father, not a common name, so I already have you pegged as a good bloke. Stay well and safe, SteveCan't wait to start the camino dos faros in Malpica on the 6th of September, God willing.
Anyone else around this time on this path?
Enjoy your walk!
Good Luck to you! I’m planning this route after realizing my first plan/route is complex and Faros gives me everything I need.Hi there,
On Tuesday the 6th of September I will start the Camino dos Faros in Malpica, God willing.
Looking forward to it!
Anyone else around this time on this path?
Take care all! Don't think, just walk
Good morning Steve,Good on you. I’ve looked at this one; even bought the guide, but haven’t ever heard from someone doing it. Do you have a blog or another way to follow it.

Good morning Quincyrae,Good Luck to you! I’m planning this route after realizing my first plan/route is complex and Faros gives me everything I need.
For the first time, I’ve thought about a baggage transfer where as I had never planned on this. I guess I really want to enjoy it. All I’ve found is self guided tours with baggage transfer which I’m not up for, just baggage transfer. Let me know if you see/find anything.
Buen Camino and come back and tell us all about it.
Hope all is going well for you! I looked into a bit more and some of these companies don’t charge too much extra for hotel and luggage transfer. I would say it’s maybe 40 euros a day more than if I done it all myself which isn’t crazy. I had no intentions of using these services but here we are I know me and I know I’ll want to hike and enjoy not be annoyed with my pack.Good morning Quincyrae,
I guess they don't have that services on this camino because it isn't well known so not much people and the change for people using this service isn't so big so I guess it isn't costs covering but I keep my eyes open for you, iff I see something I will let you know here!
Take good care of yourself Quincyrae!

Maurice - while disappointing for you in 2022, congratulations on going back this year and completing it! My husband and I are considering Faros in 2024 and are curious when you went in 2023. You mentioned the weather was bad (rain) in early September 2022. In 2023, did you go earlier in the summer to avid the rain? We are trying to figure out the best 2-3 week period to attempt the Faros where the drier weather will be in our favor. Thanks for any guidance you can offer.So, 2022 I didn't walk. I went to Malpica, it was very bad weather then. After two days walking in the rain I stopped because it would rain for more then a week so then I went home, quiet sad but this year I went again, finished it and dit was wonderfull!
Very hard, especially the first days becuase its a lot up and down but it was worth all the afford for sure, so so beautiful. After finishing in Finesterre I went to visit monte Pindo, I just love this mountain.
