I do realise I need to get a good guidebook, but in the meantime does anybody know of a easy to reach starting point for a ten days walk ending in Santiago de Compostela? To walk from Sarria isn't really long enough -any suggestions?
Hi
I've got 11 days of potential walking and am starting in Astorga. It looks like a fairly comfortable/standard 10 days of walking from here so I'll have an extra night in Santiago at the end I think. If you're flying into Madrid there are about 5 direct buses a day direct from the airport which take 4-5 hours.
Good luck.
Thank you, Bradders. I'll definitely look into starting from there. I've only just started planning, we've got over a year left to wait! You're leaving soon, aren't you? Buen camino!

I found I couldn't make any reservation in SJPP in the coming days. They are fully booked. I can't find even a single bed. What should I do? Is there anybody has a same situation?
Roncesvalles or push to Burguete? I prefer to avoid the recommended stages to avoid the race for albergues. Do you suggest Burguete? Is Roncesvalles too busy?
