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, Steve

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.

Good morning Steve,
Thank you for your comment. No I don't have any social media I use. I understand, coming from Austalia isn't like doing it just wen you want to, I guess you've to plan it way upfront.
About the camino dos Faros, a friend of mine told me about it. She lives in Galicia, met her last year and she invited me to come over a few weeks to help her with the pilgrims. I loved the suggestion but I need to walk when I have holidays. So she told me about this one, it isn't very long, just a 215km. So when ending in Fisterra I guess I walk to Santiago too, to add another 90km We will see. I just can't wait. After today another three days of work and then 4 weeks off, so good to almost smell freedom
Take care Steve and have a lovely day!

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!

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.

Definitely get back to us with updates of your travels

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.
