Hi everyone,

Having done el camino Frances, I am hooked and plan on walking again!! Since there is no way that I can get another month off work(!) this time it would be for less than two weeks. I am undecided on whether to start at Irun and walk as far as I can in that time, or choose an alternative starting point for ten/twelve days and by doing so choose a most scenic part of the route.

Any advice or recommendations are welcome?

Hi there,

had an interesting convo about where to start on another thread -- might help you decide a bit. Think it'll depend on where you're flying in and out of -- you don't want to waste too much time getting there and back.

here's a link to the thread (about downloading maps to ipads)

bon courage!

I'd probably start in Irun. I thought the first part of the walk (from Irun to Bilbao) was really beautiful and would not wanted to have missed it. There are not so scenic parts on either side of Bilbao but otherwise gorgeous.

Thanks a million to you both for your replies. I have booked flights!! I am going to fly into Biarritz and then fly out from Bilbao. Regardless of where I am at the end of my time, I can bus it (or train) to Bilbao.

Going the end of September and CANNOT wait!!

Slán and Buen camino!!
