    Thinking of starting from SJPdP in September? Consider this

    September has become the most popular month to start from St Jean Pied de Port. A couple of years ago I remember reading accounts of 400+ pilgrims per day setting out from SJPdP, and the statistics from the Pilgrims Office in St Jean bear this out. I snipped a couple of charts As you can...

    Arrivals in Santiago - statistics for april

    For those interested, the Oficina Peregrino has published its statistics for April In April, 977 pilgrims arrived in Santiago. This is a significant increase compared to March, when there were only 194. Not surprisingly, a majority was Spanish (783), of whom a majority was Galician (666). For...

    Nearly 85% Decrease in Pilgrims in 2020

    Although the 2020 full year statistics are not yet available from the Pilgrim Office, all the monthly reports from 2020 are, so I have used these to create an analysis of how the pandemic affected the camino in 2020. The biggest takeaway is this: For those interested in more information, the...

    Quiz No.3!

    A couple of weeks ago while doing some research for this Holy Year article (spoiler alert: it pretty much gives away the answers but not the order), I was looking at the popularity of various routes and that seems like a good topic for our next quiz! According to the 2019 pilgrim's office...

    A little quiz

    For a bit of fun: Do you know, or can you guess, which are the SIX most popular starting points for the Camino Francés (based on 2019 whole-year pilgrim office statistics)? Three or four are fairly obvious, of course, but there are a few contenders for the last couple of spots. Can you guess...

    Which fall month is the weather/number of pilgrims similar to March?

    My past three walks on the Camino have all been in March. Weather was brisk, the number of pilgrims was fairly low, and most alberques were open so there was never a problem finding a bed. I had hoped to return this coming March but reluctantly realize this is unlikely to happen. Currently it...

    Those misleading pilgrim office statistics

    One of the ways I moonlight is to offer free advice to first-time pilgrims on Facebook groups, and recently I had a chap tell me that he wanted his camino (Frances from SJPdP) to be solitary, so he'd decided to go off-season in April! I had to stifle a chuckle to myself, as anyone who's walking...

    Does anyone have any idea why the daily and monthly statistics are not being updated?

    Is there any way to find out the number of pilgrims per month on the Camino Olvidado?

    I would really like to walk this Camino. I guess not being so popular (at least today) it would be wise to walk in the peak season (which I guess will be between July and September). Anyway, I would like to know if, even in the peak season, there are a minimum number of pilgrims. It's not too...

    Quick Arrivals Stats Question

    Sorry I'm being dense and can't quite seem to find stats for daily issuance of Compostelas in Santiago. I can find aggregated monthly stats for 2018 on the Oficina site but I'm wanting to find out more specifically when numbers start to drop off in order to plan my walk later in the year. If...

    Monthly Pilgrim numbers from St Jean

    Hi all - I once had a neat graph that displayed monthly pilgrim numbers from St Jean but cannot find it now. Have done a lot of searching - I know it or similar exists! - but have failed. Can't get a link from the St Jean pilgrim office and the cathedral seems only to show those arriving in...
