    Ribadeo to A Coruna

    I’m thinking of staying on the coast from Ribadeo to A Coruna and then joining the Inglese? Can anyone advise if thesis route is well marked (if not point me to some Wikiloc routes) and what the Albergue situation is like? Thanks

    Norte Mountain Route - Soto to Cadevedo

    Just seen all of these comments! The coastal route was beautiful. Wild flowers everywhere. Yes it’s ups and downs and a number of stream crossings but the eucalyptus forests are maginificent and the coastal views great. Make sure you visit the Playa del Silencio, it’s off route but well worth...

    Norte Mountain Route - Soto to Cadevedo

    Hi, Im currently on the CDN at Sam Martin de Laspa. Has anyone done the Mountain route recently between Soto de Luina and Cadavedo. Some guides say it’s impassable but others say it’s not? Would appreciate some recent experience. Buen Camino

    Camino del Norte

    Now 16 days on on the CDN and need to decide if I take the Primitivo or stay on the Norte. If anyone has done both which is the most scenic and has the less asphalt? Thanks Mark

    Camino del Norte

    Unfortunately I didn’t get to see the inside 😂 I’m trying to do it old skool style but proving difficult since Santander. The plus side is I’m finding some nice places off main stages, the down side is long days and extra km’s. Now off to Pendieles via the coastal route, Buen Camino 😉

    Camino del Norte

    Just arrived at the beautiful Albergue in Columbres. It has 117 beds and I’m the first pilgrim to arrive. They have turned me away as the place is fully booked. Absolutely shocking!

    Is AllTrails useful on the Norte?

    Hi Silvamomma, I’ve never used Alltrails so can’t comment. After 4 days on the trail trail my experience so far is that the reviews are aimed at Pilgrims of all ages and capability. If you’re an experienced hill walker these trails are moderate with some strenuous sections. By the time you...

    Ground conditions - Camino Del Norte

    Hi, ive been training for my CDN in two weeks time and thought i'd get some UK coastline under my belt (Scarborough to Robin hoods Bay). I have to say i was just not prepared for the amount for the sheer amount of mud on the trail. Ankle deep in places with parts of the path washed away and in...
