I am scheduled to begin the Camino Norte in Irun on 9/5, and my walking partner just cancelled!
Will there be enough peregrinos on the trail that I won't be walking alone for 6 weeks?
There will be many people walking at that time. You may walk alone during the day, depending on your speed and who you meet, but will find many people in the after noon at the albergues. You'll be just fine.
I walked the first thid of the Norte from the end of September to mid-October and it was beautiful. You will love it.
Thanks for your reply. I have decided to make the journey. See you in Irun!Hi, David. I will be Hospitalero at Irun´s albergue from the 1st to the 10th of septemper. Hope wll see there if you choose to slept there, if not, go you say hi.You´ll not have problems of loneliness in this month.
Buen Camino.
Thanks, I have decided to .... Trust the Road.The Norte is a lovely camino. Agree that you will always meet someone. It may work out even better for you.
Trust the roadUltreia!
Am thinking about doing 2 legs of the Camino del Norte in October .. I will be travelling on my own, is this route safe for females travelling on their own .. any females out there with recent experience of walking these routes please? thank you.
I am walking the Norte solo now. I find it perfectly safe. I am often walking alone which is fine. There's always people in hostels.I am scheduled to begin the Camino Norte in Irun on 9/5, and my walking partner just cancelled!

Congratulations! How long did it take you? I will begin from Irun on 5 Sept. Returning home 15 Oct. and hope I can make it to Santiago in that time. Thx for your reply!Hi, sorry your walking buddy cancelled! He/she will definitely be missing out!
I just finished the Norte by myself yesterday from San Sebastián, though I started with a good friend the first week. It was a perfect combination of solo and group walking, and honestly I treasured the last 3 weeks without my friend more! It allowed me to meet several soul mates who I can't wait to see again. Buen camino, have fun, the north way has SPECTACULAR views!!!
P.s. As a female solo traveller I never once felt threatened or imperiled. the Camino is demanding but gentle
Hi David - I am starting the Norte from Bilbao on Sept 9 going solo. Maybe you will get there from Irun about that time. Buen Camino, KathiI am scheduled to begin the Camino Norte in Irun on 9/5, and my walking partner just cancelled!

Hi, David. I will be Hospitalero at Irun´s albergue from the 1st to the 10th of septemper. ..... .
Hi Pingüigrino
I'm trusting there will still be a bed available when I arrive late afternoon on the 6th. Might there be a local Santander (spelling?) bank with an ATM close by the albergue ?
thx
