If you had 14 days...

yes...
Here's a little challenge for a Sunday afternoon. If you had 2 weeks... 14 days ... where would you walk? And why?

The caveat... You have to walk at the end of March. I'm looking forward to seeing your ideas.

You must be finished your amble on the Frances if you are posting here
Great question...for me I choose Logrono to Leon - starting in Rioja and continuing through the Meseta, my favourite part of the Frances.
Plus in March, there would be plenty of solitude (I hope) .
Looking forward to other answers!

I picked up a cold and stopped early... but my waliking buddies would like more... 2 weeks at the end of March 2018. At first we thought Primitivo but I'm not sure of the weather... so I decided that best way to get some ideas would be to ask you guys
 

Good healing!!

I would walk the Vasco Interior from Irun to Santo Domingo de la Calzada.

I'm currently in Haro... and my husband has earmarked the Vasco for one of our walks... what a great town!

Altus 24 Liters daypack (DENON 24 H30)
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
End of March? VDLP. Start in Sevilla and walk north. That is one route you will not want to be walking much later in the year.
 
Based partly on the current reports from @Magwood and @Undermanager, I'm thinking that the Camino de Madrid might be my choice for next March.

On the VdlP, my favourite 2-week portion was Merida to Salamanca, which I did in late March 2017. Why? For its variety of landscapes, right number of pilgrims, good paths, perfect weather, etc.

Pick a start point on any camino and walk 14 days. No problem
 
I would walk the Inglés, and I'd start in the UK, or even Belgium. I find to my delight that this is a much shorter route from the Northwest of Europe than walking through Belgium, France and the entire North of Spain. Pity there are no ferries to A Coruña or el Ferrol, that would be super.

No surprise here: my vote goes to Astorga-Santiago, because in March you have the trails and hills more or less to yourself, and can really enjoy Rabanal, Molinaseca, the Pradela route, O Cebreiro ... and even the post Sarria part without queueing!
 
On the Norte . . .

Bidart, France to Santillana del Mar, Spain (Posada La Victoria in Cundon just after Santader is my favourite hotel of the Camino)

Or with a group of 4-6 people Luarca to Santiago. (In March the albergues could be empty and the friends are useful!)
 
Thanks for all the ideas folks... the question is not 100% for me but my walking buddies. We were wondering if anyone had walked the Primitivo in March? I'm wondering if that's too early for that route?

We came home today and it was their first camino experience... and after 11 days they are hooked and want to do more but time is difficult with work and family and school holidays... but March works for all of us?

We had thought maybe the Portuguese from Porto? Better weather? Or maybe continuing on the CF as March will be quieter?

The VdlP and Levante are out as I want to do the VdlP again in full but in spring rather than Autumn... and my other half wants to walk the Levante with me one day... but the rest are all ideas we can consider.

I think the weather will be the deciding factor... we dont mind cold but we'd prefer not too much rain and mud... any more ideas very welcome... I'll pass them on to the girls
