Hi, really jealous about the wine scenario. Thank you for the advice re skipping first part of walk. Was wondering how I would get from Bilbao airport to,portugalete around 9.30 pm . I know that the metro goes but not sure if it goes from the airport .Just read your original post again.... you're stopping at Santander.... well, have fun anyway.
In my defense I'm a little bit drunk on cheap Portuguese wine after a 30km walk.
thank you for your advice. Point taken. I have now decided to walk from Bilbao to Portugalete.Gosh - Bilbao to Portugalete is only some 110km and you're proposing to skip the first 15km
For me, the whole point of walking the Camino is to take the rough with the smooth
Just for anyone else that might be reading this. I actually did walk Bilbao-Portugalete and though uninspiring (like many stages on any Camino can be), it was neither industrial nor ugly. Urban yes.
There are two routes out to Portugalete, one following the river which takes you over to the other side via the suspension bridge and is only 14 km. I took the other one which was up and down through woods and suburban/urban areas into Portugalete. It was 18 km.
... (and if anyone reading this disagrees please feel free to keep your opinion to yourself) ...
