Frances St J P D P to Santiago on MTBs Aug 16
Norte planned on MTB June 17
Has anyone mountain biked the Norte?
We did the `frances last year and it was a fantastic experience. I would also like to know if anyone knows the relative height gains for the two.
Our routes are and will be Irun to Santiago and St Jean to Santiago
Many thanks

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

The Gronze site has elevation maps for each of its etapas.
Thanks, I have seen this site but what I really want is the total elevation gain for both routes so I can compare the two

Can't you figure it out using the data provided by Gronze?

It would take a long time to take the elevation data of each day, it does not give elevation totals. i've found it on bike map, but there seem to be 2 identical rides, one says 6,910m the other 13,280m both covering 845km, you can see why its not easy!

Hope to do st Jean de port to finisterre in September 24 on bike. To buy a bike in Ireland and transport or buy in France. Any thoughts welcomed
Is there a dedicated guide for cyclists that suggests alternatives to the rocky/steep parts of the trail? I found a link to a 2018 one on another thread, but it is no longer available.
