I can't help you with your question because I have not walked the Norte, but I love your suggestion that you "might just walk on until [you] have to go home and finish the Norte another time." You haven't mentioned where 'home' is but, if there is the possibility that you could finish the Norte another time, that's what I would be inclined to do. It's a great excuse to have to come back!Hello,
I am on the Norte right now, actually sitting in the albergue in Soto de Luiña. I still have ten walking days left. I will not make it to Santiago "on time", I really don't like walking more than 30 km a day, ideally I walk around 20-26.
If I would skip some etapas, which are the "best" (least pretty / most difficult) to skip? If I would skip some I would prefer to skip a whole stretch at once, not take a bus every few days. Alternatively, I might just walk on until I have to go home and finish the Norte another time.
Would love to hear some input!
Thanks in advance,
Bianca
If you have to be in Santiago anyway to get your train, that changes things. But, one thing is for sure, there is no need to feel pressured - please don't feel pressured; there is no need for that. If you think you are short three days, just train three days' distance and carry on from there. Trust that you have made the right decision - I like to think everything happens for the best - even if it turns out I might have made a better decision. Relax, keep calm, go with the flow, and enjoy the rest of your Camino.Yes, but at the same time I also find it slightly silly because 1) I have to be in Santiago anyway, I have a train booked from there and 2) I will probably only have two or three days too little (if that's how you say it). I really don't know!
Right now I feel very pressured though...
Right now I'm thinking of walking to Cadavedo tomorrow and taking the train from there to La caridad.

Urgent was lat MondayIf you catch the FEVE Train be aware that trainstop are discretionary, so you have to push the bottom otherwise the train does not stop. We had same problem, not enough time, we decided to escape some in country etapa, but we walked all alone the coast. Buen Camino...
