      Stellamaris reacted to Waka's post in the thread Old Camino Walkers with Thank you Thank you.
      It's now seven weeks since I returned from doing he Frances and what a wonderful 40 days it was. I'm sure there are possible pilgrims out there that worry that they may be too old to walk the camino, but I can assure you there is no age barrier...

      I could have been warned. But I felt prepared. I had trained by frequently running in my city and hiking a whole week around Berlin on the Mauerweg (160 km). I had lost weight and felt quite fit for 53. Much fitter than on my first camino (Ingles...

      Hello Jack. My 89th birthday is coming up next month, and I regularly walk, ice skate and swim. I am planning to walk the CF starting from Roncesvalles next spring. Perhaps our paths will cross and we can lift a glass to life.

      I just had my 90th b'day and I'm planning to do the Camino May 2025, if I'm still in good health. I walk a couple of miles every day in the hills and go to the gym, so if I take it easy on the Camino I think I can do it. I'm looking forward to...

      The Camino Planner As the click-clack of walking sticks fades here in Santiago, the tap-tap of my keyboard picks up with exciting changes planned for 2025. Earlier this summer, we published the complete content of the Wise Pilgrim guides here...
