I am starting the Norte from Bilbao after attending the European Rugby Finals on 11 and 12 May. Hey you Rugby fans let's form a 35 day scrum all the way from the center of the Spanish Basque Country to SdC.
European Rugby Finals! A good idea to combine rugby and the walk. I am tempted, but I had the idea to start the beginning of June.
I did the Lisbon to Santiago pilgrimage this year, the easy way with accommodation booked for me, My Norte will be my first Camino that I have to find food and a resting place.
Good Luck to you.
 
Finding both food and resting places on the Norte is relatively easy. Enjoy your time there.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Excellent idea. I flirted with it myself, but eventually settled on starting from Irun on May 16. You'll be well ahead of me, but enjoy that weekend!
 
My side are still in Semi's but an away against Leinster will be a stiff test. Was looking to try and combine the final and a decent section of it myself but this will be work allowing!! There is already since before Xmas no accomation anywhere near Bilbao over this weekend.
 
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.

Tomorrow I fly to Bilbao to start my 5th stint on the Camino. I did the Frances in three parts (2016, 2017 and 2022). Last year I did the Portuguese from Porto. I did the first 200 km of the...
I thought I had this all figured out, but I have ended up with 2 train tickets from San Sebastian (I don't even know if it's the airport or the town) to Irun, instead of ONE that goes all the way...
