Thank you for the kind encouragement. I'm starting on 2 April from SPPdP and so you timing is perfect.To all of those leaving On or near April o1:
My Girlfriend and I had a wonderful Camino last year leaving on 01April last year. We thought in hind site it was one of the best times to start. Cool weather, rain at times yes but still would do it the same time, met an interesting group of "April Fools" as we dubbed ourselves.
A. Don't worry about which route, take the advice of the office at SJPP. It works
B. The route is very well marked. Camino Frances Its the best marked route.
C. The people in the Albergues, Pensions, and Hostels are fresh and ready to meet you.
D. If your not in peak shape for the trip? Again don't worry(you will be doing fine 2-3 weeks into it), walk at your pace, stop, see, visit, and relate to the wonderful people of Spain. We ended up walking over 800 miles or 1290 kilometers by our end date in Spain.
Above All: "Let(allow) The Camino Provide" - It will
Much success and great trips to you this 2017 Camino. We hope to be on a Camino in Spain next year.

Thanks for this post @Angel-hart. I am leaving SJpdP April 6. Training has taken a back seat in the last week, as I race to finish working etc... so nice to read your thoughts.To all of those leaving On or near April o1:

Thank you, it IS starting to feel surreal. I haven't gone on a walkabout in 40 years. My family is very understandingDon't worry about your training. You will do well. It was very surreal the first few days being there. We talk about it often mixture of: wow, Im really here walking the Camino. Wish you well!
Buen Camino

Me too, I leave on 10th April and start on the 12th from SJPDP. Buen Camino all
thankyou! This post was just what I needed. My husband and I start from SJPDP on 8 April, for our first Camino. I was getting a little worried that we are the crazy ones walking in April- worried about the weather but your post assures me it will be ok! (Although I'd feel a lot better if we could confirm our accommodation in Orisson!) Hope to see many of you thereTo all of those leaving On or near April o1:

Thank you for your post @Angel-hart! I'm starting my first Camino from Saint Jean Pied de Port on Thursday 6 and I'm still a bit worried about the walk across the Pyrenees. I hope everything will be fine!
Me too, I leave on 10th April and start on the 12th from SJPDP. Buen Camino all
