- July 2013
hi all, im a 35 yr old female planning to walk the camino from pamplona to finisterre in august 2013. i always have difficulty going uphill.... and im
not confident i can manage with the full weight of my pack. i've done annapurna circuit nepal, mount kinabalu and mount ophir before, but only with a day pack.... even then, i found it very challenging.
i undertand the camino is undulating and not too steeply uphill ..... but being summer and crowded, securing accomodation is another thing that worries me.
so ive started looking for planned tours and ive received quotes starting from 3500 pounds or approximately 8000 singapore dollars (!!). this includes food too...
can anyone share how much a basic camino (pilgrim budget) costs? if the difference isnt too much, i might just do the planned. plus i have 5 weeks exactly to finish pamplona to finisterre and need to cover 20-25 km a day..... cant afford to be sick or lose a day!
comments / advice anyone?
thanks!!
