Hello!
I fly into Bilbao on June 24th (so soon!) and will have until July 10th for my walk. Wish I could do the whole thing, but I can't get enough time off work, sadly.
Does anyone have recommendations for which route to take? Do you recommend Camino Frances or the Northern Route, given that it is not important to me to end up in Santiago? I am nervous about crowns in late June/early July, but also do not want to be completely solitary. I was thinking of busing from Bilbao to Roncesvalles, but after reading some recent posts I am a bit worried about the crowds as I really do not want to have to plan my auberges in advance. I am traveling alone for the first time, and I am very excited about exploring the Spanish countryside, getting to know my fellow pilgrims, and also chatting with the local folk. Any advice for a good 2-week camino chunk is greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much for your help!
