    So your 2 miles per hour works out to 3.2 km per hour.

    How to get to Sarria

    It would be helpful if you told us where you are coming from.

    Only 2 km per hour? Do you mean that you walk 2 miles per hour? 2 km per hour is only 1.24 miles per hour.

    Albergue in Calzado del Coto

    Has anyone stayed at the donativo Albergue San Roque in Calzado del Coto? I'm planning to stay there tomorrow (Sunday), and my only concern is dinner. I'm currently in Calzadilla de la Cueza where there is no grocery store, and I may not pass an open grocery store on my way tomorrow. According...

    Shortest section between Camino del Norte and Primitivo.

    You can do these stages described in Gronze. You basically drop down to Oviedo from Villaviciosa as if you were going to do the Primitivo, then walk from Oviedo to Avilés. https://www.gronze.com/camino-norte

    Missing Shoes

    The shoes have been found, so I'll close the thread.

    Alternative routes - maps?

    Many of the Camino routes are also GR routes. The same is true for some trails along the coast.

    Camino by Coach

    How can you say that there is nothing holy about honoring the sacrifice made by these people, but visiting bones that may or may not be those of St James is?

    I consider myself to be s pilgrim according to the first definition:

    Alternative routes - maps?

    No. In settings I have the map set to "outdoor" which I think is better for showing the hiking trails. In this screenshot of the Santander area you can see a red line along the coast. The official Camino is a dark blue line. When you zoom in you can see the labels - senda del litoral...

    Alternative routes - maps?

    The app mapy.cz is great for funding and following coastal paths. I used it quite a bit in the Norte last year. https://en.mapy.cz/zakladni?x=15.7296031&y=49.2854305&z=8

    Travel Insurance

    The policy that I bought for my Portuguese Camino in 2022 cost $105, and paid out over €6000 when I broke my wrist and needed two surgeries in Portugal.

    Camino by Coach

    You can think of it as them missing out on the wonderful experience that you are having. So what if they get a pretty piece of paper at the end. Does that really compare to your experience?

    Not a key part for me!

    Travel Insurance

    It doesn't have to be expensive. You have to decide what you want insurance to cover and what you don't mind "self insuring." I buy my flights using points, so I don't pay to cover my "prepaid" costs of flights, hotels, etc. I mainly want the medical, repatriation, and trip interruption...

    Memorable Climbs

    I did the Camino del Norte in 2018 and again last year. The days that I remember being difficult weren't as hard as I remembered, and days that I remember being fairly easy almost killed me. I think part of it had to do with whether I was walking alone or with someone else .
