Im katherine from Canada and South Africa. I’m planning my Camino Inglés in short order and will be going solo starting Saturday. Is there anyone else planning on commencing from Ferrol on Saturday?

Hi Katherine
Welcome to the Forum!
Al the optimist and HeidiL are starting at the same time so maybe you will meet them. I walked the Ingles during Easter in 2015 and there were a lot of people walking, mostly Spanish people. It was a joy walking the Ingles, it is one of my favorites and I have walked it twice. Maybe I'll walk it again as the trail has been altered since I walked it.
Buen Camino and all the best to you

I have already replied on the other post.
We will start the Camino Saturday and stay at Neda also.

I had a cough and cold and the weather was pretty bad. For the first time ever I chickened out and spent most the week in bed in warm hotels. Now beck home doing thge same. Maybe I should have just come back on the day after I got there?
Well done to those that made it. You did not have the best of walking conditions.

Oh my, it was rainy but enjoyable nonetheless and really quite busy given Semana Santa. I wish you a speedy recovery, Al.
We had a problem with our flight to Coruna. It was canceled due to lack of personal, and we had to start the camino only on Sunday at 01pm.
We tried to walk to Pontedeume on the first day, but it was impossible.
We could catch up the camino we had planned in Betanzos, but we didn't had vacancy on the Albergue.
From there it was as planned. We did find that it was a difficult way because of the weather. It was raining most of the days and we had to make an extra effort to get to Santiago on Thursday as planned.
I will repeat this way again to enjoy it even more.
Ultreia!

Glad you found it enjoyable. I encountered a few pilgrims who also said it was busy (and muddy) including two young animals who walked Ferrol to Santiago in 3 days!
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
It’s entirely doable if you’ve got a good stride - at 5ft2 I don’t - and if you don’t have blisters. If you’re doing 5km an hour you can walk a 40km day in 9 hours, with breaks. But hey, it’s lovely to stroll too

I am in the strolling class. We have been passed on many occasions by the 40kms a day walkers.

Hope you have recovered now @Al the optimist
Probably wisdom, gained by age
