I walked Ingles in 2016 but rerouting happened last year and as I understand it's rerouted before Bar Julia and is very well marked so you shouldn't have any problem finding a way. The route change is before Bruma and doesn't go through Meson do Vento.Hi All. I last did the English route in 2012. I am think of doing it again in Spring 2019 (with a couple new to the Camino. They want a taster and preferably want to end up in Santiago.)
Has the route changed significantly to warrant my buying a new guide? I understand it’s changed around/after Bar Júlia... how is the signage? Could I manage with my old guide plus updates given here on the forum.
Also does the “new” route after Bar Júlia go near Meson do Venta?
Many thanks
What guide are you referring to? I wish to walk the Ingles late October from Ferrol and am not sure what guide to get. ThanksBut the new guide is totally inaccurate and a complete waste of money! I completed the Ingles last week - very disappointed with the guide and, to be honest, some later parts of the walk. I walked the old route two years ago and it was much more enjoyable.

So I just go to Ferrol and where do I start ?Well whatever you find that is 2018 could be a preferable choice. Definetley CSJ Jonny Walker was better but did not have the new change from Sigueiro.. still house or not guide you can easily follow the arrow all the way. It is very well signed
Buen camino
Unless you want to walk through the dock area you can start on the north side of the bridge and walk to Fene - you still do 100km - 111 in factSo I just go to Ferrol and where do I start ?

It's a good walk, totally different from the CF, not as busy. I caught the train from SdC to Ferrol, lovely scenery!

Hi. I am currently on the ingles, at Bruma. I am using the buen Camino app which shows both the new and the old routes. I've taken the old route every time. It is longer but is away from the road. I do not understand why they have re-routed to make pilgrims walk on main roads. There are not any extra bars or services on the roads so I just don't get it. Also for info, it is busy. Maybe 40 or 50 pilgrims walking. Albergues are all full.[/QUOTE
I agree - no idea why they've changed it! Loved the Ingles 2 years ago, but this year not so much!
