I did my first camino last year in Sept '15 (Camino Frances) started from Leon. And indeed i feel so blessed to be able to do my camino though only started from Leon.

And there is a feeling deep inside me urging to do another camino, and this time I choose Camino Del Norte. But I found not so much information about this route and need more information as well as the best time to do this camino. My initial plan is to start by End September 2016, unfortunately I do only have 20 days of walking. Any suggestion which city that I have to start? What will be the weather?

Thanks for the advice.

I downloaded a mobile app named vojo way. It has also Norte, and seems ok for checking how far to walk in a day. I haven't learned how to use it yet, but initial glance gave a good impression.

You could check out the Gronze guide and work backwards from Santiago, at your daily walking distance, to find a starting point.

It all depends on how much you want to arrive in Santiago. If you start in Irun you will be able to walk the very beautiful part through Basque country. However, you will not be able to reach Santiago.

I did check vojo way, but the application only for android at this moment. For IOS have to wait for awhile. Hope before my camino, the application for IOS already available. Thanks for the advice.

Maybe Santander, if time is of the essence.
