- Time of past OR future Camino
- (2001) (2018)
We hiked the Camino Frances in 2018, just before Covid ruined everyones plans. I biked it in 2001.
And now we’re back…
“Older now, but still running against the wind”
We are going to be walking the sections we missed. Le Puy to SJPD in sections over the next few years. It’s too much to attempt the whole thing in the time available.
This year its Cahors to Condom. We are in Cahors tonight, 09/19. And start tomorrow and will try to post along the way.
Right now we’re looking for hiking poles. The store in Cahors is now permanently closed so we’re off to try at the Intersport 3 km away, a warmup walk.
UPDATE:
We walked to the InterSport this afternoon, an easy short 3km one way. They have a multitude of different hiking poles available, ranging in price from €6 a piece all the way up to €57+ for a pair.
Alternatively…The #2 bus runs from downtown to there, (the bus is free!) but according to the gal at the tourist office, you have to let the driver know where you want to get off. We didn’t use the bus but judging from the number of times it passed us, it runs very frequently.
