Camino Ingles Group Walk in June, 2016 anyone?

[miguel_gp]

Hi,

I have been making arrangements for a group of ten people to walk the Camino Ingles from Ferrol in June this year over 6 days. Unfortunately, one of that group has had to drop out because of some unforeseen work commitments. The end result is that I have some room bookings along the route which are no longer needed. I can release these back to the hotels but before doing so thought I would ask if anybody on the forum is interested in walking the Ingles with a group during the period June 18th to 25th. The walk is split over 6 days and the group consists of 4 newcomers, 3 second timers and 2 Camino veterans, all UK based (but that is not a requirement!). Age range is from 29 through to 73.

I should make it clear that this group is not being run on a commercial basis. Upfront flights and transfer arrangements are at cost price and then individuals settle their own accommodation and food bills on the way, although the accommodation has been pre-booked.

If anyone is interested, please drop me a PM within the next few days and I can provide further details.

Thanks
Mig

Sounds like a great trip you've got planned! Hope you'll report back on the walk, it's always interesting to hear how the newcomers like the Camino, as well as insights from those who have traveled it before by comparison. I'll actually be in Coruna earlier in June, but heading home exactly two weeks before you guys begin. BUEN CAMINO!!

I´m planning to do the Camino Ingles in June, although thinking of earlier in the month because of the heat. What daily distances are you doing?

 

[miguel_gp]

Off the top of my head (but should be to within a km or two) 14km, 16km, 21km, 28km, 28km, 10km.

Thanks for your quick reply Miguel. I think 2 times 28k, especially back to back, might be a bit too much for me. Although I´ve done more than that on the Frances and VDLP I´d been going long enough to build up some stamina. Wish you and your group Buen Camino anyway.

Thank you. I hope that you have good, but not too hot weather in early June. The route from Ferrol, particularly as far as Betanzos is beautiful and I'm sure you will enjoy it.
Buen Camino.
