- CF - 2022 August/September
Plan to walk on CF late August, and this is my first CF. Being thinking about, preparing for this journey over two years now. Thought I can go all the way from SJPP to SdC with planned 5 weeks off, but now I can't, and need to shrink it down to 3 weeks since I really don't want to postpone it any more.
I am from Philadelphia, US and plan to land at Madrid or Pamplona to continue my walk.
Various routes I can think of, but it is all debatable as well. This is why I like to hear your opinions.
1. [No SdC] Start from SJPP, like most pilgrims do, probably end @astorga, then head home. Leave it up the next trip to pick it from Astorga, or restart from SJPP, depends on what I experience on the first walk.
2. Start from SJPP, stop at Burgos or Fromista, then train/bus to Ponferrada, SDC/Home. Sort of skipping boring part of 'Meseta'?? but don't mind of opening fields & big ski.
3. Start from Burgos, all the way to SDC, probably end at Finisterre, then head home. --> Missing the most scenic part of the walk?? and, possibly bonding with other pilgrims.??
Appreciated your thoughts.
