Found him on the way, just before O Cebreiro. That's him in Santiago, and later at home: Made a poncho for his carrier from a garbage bag. Me in my giant tent-like poncho, and him with the garbage bag, looked ridiculous 🤣. Bought him a... -
The Primitivo may be shorter than the full Camino Francis route, but it has arguably many more very challenging days than the Francis route. Some very hilly days until you reach Lugo. But it remains my favorite out of the seven walks I have done...

I think that it's easier to organize by yourself, because you don't have to worry about anyone else's wants and needs The higher route is closed until April 1st, so you will be taking the route via Valcarlos. That's one less decision that you...
