Walking with (young) children

I hope this helps. While I did not walk with children, I over nighted with a family with 4 children between ages 2 and 10 twice on my Camino. The father had a pull cart with their items and I don't remember if the children had small packs or carried anything. I stayed with them in Fonfria and then met them on my return from Muxia in O Logoso about 10 days later. On the trail, the older children were ahead of the rest of the family at one stop, patiently waiting for the others to catch up. On both stops, hospitaleros were helpful and accommodating and pilgrims were welcoming. I'm not sure about 72 hours of rain, the kids may enjoy it more that the adults???? I think it is going to be a very positive and memorable trip for all.

Hi Gauvins,

It's always wonderful seeing children on the camino; no doubt it will be an amazing experience that will stay with them for the rest of their lives!
