    Easiest one week for Camino for elders?

    Where did you in Atapuerca? Walking there now and can’t find a good/helpful review for albergues in Agés or Atapuerca. Gracias!!!

    What was the hardest part of the Camino de Santiago?

    Strong agree! (Hiked the Frances twice and starting my 3rd this week. God bless the Orisson albergue!)

    Traveling from western Canada - how far in advance do you book your flights?

    I’m traveling VERY last minute and had to book my flight from Washington, DC less than a week away. My biggest tip is to check out Ryanair.com for other options beyond Madrid and Paris. I’m saving a few hundred dollars by flying into Dublin and taking a cheap ($20) flight from Dublin to Biarritz.

    Also, this is a last minute decision for me and have NO IDEA what I’m doing! I’ve hiked twice before but only in the summertime and haven’t wven begun to pack (or train 😬🤦🏼‍♀️😂).

    Starting in less than a week - need all the help I can get!

    Hi there! Very long story short, I'm starting my Camino in less than a week (with essentially zero prep- trust me, I know!!!) and despite being my 3rd Camino have NO IDEA what to pack for October /November on the Frances. I expect to take 35-40 days to veto Santiago and Muxia, leaving on Oct...

    Gregory Sage 45 backpack

    I just bought the same pack and for those researching bags, I'd like to recommend not just immediately going for the most lightweight. Although Ultra Lightweight is pursued with an almost cult like passion around here (and for good reason!), it's also incredibly important to know - and be...

    Albergue in Bordeaux

    Hi Philippe, I would love your thoughts on navigating travel in France. I am flying in to Paris on July 12th and thinking about staying in Bordeaux that evening, taking a train to SJPP early the next morning in order to make it to Orisson for supper on the 13th. Do you think that's feasible...

    Latest Possible Departure From SJPP to Roncesvalles?

    I'm a huge fan of slow and steady (and took 40 days on my last Camino) - but given the days in travel, I'm hoping to begin in SJPP as soon as possible after I land in Paris on the 12th. :)

    Latest Possible Departure From SJPP to Roncesvalles?

    Hello Peregrinos, I'm sorting out my final logistics and trying to determine if it's possible to take the first bus out from Bayonne at 7:45am and still make it to Roncevalles that night. (I'm trying to make it to Santiago by my birthday, so attempting to get started as quickly as possible and...

    Flying into Paris at 3pm - any tips on how to get to SJPP without losing days?

    Thanks! What is AKA? A lot of posts say they bought tickets on the same day they traveled, so thank you for the warning!

    Flying into Paris at 3pm - any tips on how to get to SJPP without losing days?

    Hello fellow Peregrinos, I'm flying into Paris from Washington, DC on Saturday at 3pm and trying to figure out how to get to SJPP as quickly, cheaply and easily as possible. Any chance I could get there on the same day or do I need to factor in a rest day in Bordeaux or Bayonne? Want to start...
