Time of past OR future Camino
Starting the french way today
Just walked my 4th CF , now started walking back to SJPD If you want to get my perspective on the return journey then check my daily posts on Instagram steve1963cole.

So far day one to ribadiso de Baixo has been interesting !
 
Altus BALI Sleeping bag liner
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
I have walked back a few times, I like it. Enjoy!

Note that the climb out of Molinesca is brutal in this direction, as is the climb to Alto de Perdon!

Buen Camino
Davey

Thank you Dave, I was thinking it would be hard, will start very early on the day from Ponferrada. On the way down I often take the road way( to avoid falling down) but going up will do the path! Should be there on Thursday

Met any interesting characters also walking back yet? Last time a group of us who were walking back accidently met up in Villafranca Montes de Oca. Me, A young punk guy with two lovely friendly Staffie dogs, A very old man with a very old donkey (was donkeys 4th or 5th camino - she knew the way), and a pretty young French girl. We were quite a group!

Buen Camino!

Nobody yet, on the way to Santiago only saw 4 people walking back. Its a strange experience , but I like the solitude .

I get annoyed when I hola to pilgrims and and some don't respond ! But besides that it's great
