Hello past, present and future pilgrims!
I shot this hyperlapse of the Pyrenees section of the walk back on my Camino in 2012.
Hopefully it quells a few nerves for some and brings back a flood of memories for others !
Thank you, great to watch! It doesn't look as bad as I thought it was going to beThat is so true grayland! The initial and post perception couldn't be further apart!
I'm really happy that you're all finding some value in this, cheers guys
Thanks for this, F Ashley! I have done Stage 8 (Sarria to Santiago) and now want to do Stage 1 but am not sure if I am fit to do the Pyrenees! How many hours does this video cover, ie how long did it take? Is there only one route for this? I've read a few accounts and it talks about steep inclines and killer downhills, but I didn't see any in your video. Is it possible I am reading about different routes? Thanks Sarah
Thank you.Hello past, present and future pilgrims!

That was fun. We rode the route, and generally kept to the main roads over the Pyrenees. But we are now hoping to walk it and viewing the video has given us more hope that we will do it one day!Hello past, present and future pilgrims!

Wow! I loved this hyperlapse of the Pyrenees! My husband and I were considering starting further west to avoid injury. Now we start in St. Jean. Thank you so much for posting this!Hello past, present and future pilgrims!

@donalomahony Oh yes, the white van and it's hard boiled eggs!
@PANO In terms of kit - a GoPro, chest harness and an external battery. For software - PhotoShop to align the images and AfterEffects to compile them!
Thank you SO MUCH! That is just the thing I needed to see - there is so much written about the crossing - but your pictures say it all. Thank you!Hello past, present and future pilgrims!

I love it. I thought of doing the same thing. So glad someone already has. Technical question....what settings did you use (1 frame/60 seconds?). Did you take multiple memory cards or did you upload to a computer? I didnt want to take a laptop due to the extra weight. How many memory cards did you use? etc etcHello past, present and future pilgrims!

Hi Francisco J.. Great hyper lapse.. Looks good to me, what time of year odd you do it, I'm starting mine on the 1st May.. Hopefully the weather will be good and the bed bugs few...thanks for the vid..Which month did you walk?
Thank you Militiachelle.. What time of year did you walk?It was nice to see what it actually looked like. It was extremely foggy the day I walked from St. Jean. I saw nothing but white all day.
A year ago yesterday would have been the day I walked from St. Jean.Thank you Militiachelle.. What time of year did you walk?

Thank you very much. I have chronic inflammatory issues especially with knees and back. After watching your awesome video, I am feeling more confident on attempting the CF. It is in my bucket list and my goal to do this before I turn 70 (in 3 years).Hello past, present and future pilgrims!

I agree. It is the only leg of the journey I have been fairly worried about...this is great...thanks!Nicely done!
It really is a very good picture of the actual walk from St .Jean to Roncevalles.
I like the idea that it takes the myth of a tough trail out of it. It is uphill...but not a serious walk. There is much fear generated on the forums about the Napoleon route. It is tough because it is the first day or in the middle of a snow storm...but really not an actual problem.
No worries, @hopefultraveller24 .I agree. It is the only leg of the journey I have been fairly worried about...this is great...thanks!

Wonderful, thank you! Looks different not covered in snowBelow is a YouTube segment that I filmed for John Sikora walking from SJPdP to Roncesvalles on the Napoleon Route. It is the first video of John's Camino de Santiago Day by Day video series. It includes a couple of nifty graphics for each segment:
1. A Google Maps flyover of the route at the beginning of the video
2. During the walk, the video shows a chart at the bottom with a marker that follows along the way as the video progresses. It also shows the distance in miles.
3. The video also shows the Brierley guide's stage map of the section walked, with a marker that moves in relation to the mileage covered.
The video's are done at 4k resolutions (1440p or 2160p), so the higher the resolution settings on the YouTube app, and on the computer or TV, the better the quality of for viewing. They can also be viewed at standard and high definition settings, too.
This is just one video from John's entire series covering the Camino Frances from SJPdP to Santiago de Compostela. In addition to my video footage, the series also has a separate video of the Valcarlos Route to Roncesvalles..

Unless you are just carrying a huge amount of gear, Iam not sure how the Go-Pro will add a significant amount of weight. I am preparing for my first Camino in April but I don't expect to be anywhere near carrying 20lbs (9.1 kg).I love this. I know I can do this. I plan to spend a lot of time relaxing along the way. Makes me want to take a GoPro but ever ounce counts, so I will most likely forgo it.
You are posting this in a forum where I've read about people mutilating their toothbrushes and cutting the tags off their clothing to save weight. If people think the weight of their toothbrush handle or the tags in their clothing is significant, I'm not surprised that they think that carrying a Go-Pro is like Sisyphus pushing a boulder uphill.Unless you are just carrying a huge amount of gear, Iam not sure how the Go-Pro will add a significant amount of weight. I am preparing for my first Camino in April but I don't expect to be anywhere near carrying 20lbs (9.1 kg).
