@Lisnashannagh, welcome to the forum. The usual advice on walking Camino routes in reverse is make sure you have a good navigation App or can read a guide book backwards, reversing every line of direction. Trail marks are set to inform walkers heading to Santiago. Every Yellow Arrow will be behind you, telling you where you have come from not where to go next.Hi there
Help needed! We are planning to walk the route from Santander to Bilbao in April 2020. Has anyone any advice for walking the reverse route? What about luggage transfers, does anyone know of a company that will do this?
We booked it that way and only afterwards thought it might cause logistical issues. So now we either go with it or re plan the whole trip. Any advice?Is there a reason why you want to do it in reverse?
By booked it that way do you mean you have pre-booked accommodation or you have booked flights into Santander and out of Bilbao? There are easy train & bus connections between those two cities so re-reversing your route would not be difficult though it would be time consuming.We booked it that way and only afterwards thought it might cause logistical issues.

Welcome Lisnashannagh, How long have you booked for, 1 week or 2. You could always walk part of the Northe for the time you have and then bus back to Bilboa for your flight home.Yes we booked flights into Santander and out of Bilbao. Thanks for the tips. We’ve some thinking to do!
We ladies don’t travel that light unfortunately!Yes I carried my bag but only 5 kls. I always travel light.
Some of us do!We ladies don’t travel that light unfortunately!
Well we might have to start too if we don’t get this trip organised! At least we have lots of good suggestions to work on.Some of us do!
Wonderful suggestion and that’s exactly what we’re going to do. That way we only need to re-arrange some accommodation & can work with the flights we have. So we’re westward bound, thanks for all the advice.Welcome Lisnashannagh, How long have you booked for, 1 week or 2.
