Camino del Norte Forum

Seawind · Sep 10, 2024

I’m fairly new to this forum and it has been VERY helpful preparing me and answering a multitude of questions prior to my 1st Camino. Currently, I have just completed Day 14 of the Norte which started in Irun. The plan is to make it to Santiago but the Camino has taught me many things…1) take it one day at at time and 2) it’s at your OWN pace.
Can anyone tell me if the Forum has specific threads relating mainly on the Norte? It seems the majority of posts I’m reading are of the Frances. It would be great to monitor other pilgrims updates and specific areas of concerns and/or new info in regards to the Norte. I’ve tried searching on this platform but have only found specific thread questions. Perhaps that’s all there is.
Thanks for any insight.

Yes!
Here's the Camino del Norte sub-forum.

If you look at the main forum page you will see the (mostly) logical listings of sub-forums - after all the "what's new" kinds of posts.

Hi, if it helps, I did the Norte, from Irun 2 years ago, I my view the 1st 14 days, we're the hardest in trying to find accommodation, the next part is stunning, but, as you quite rightly said, take it as you onw pace, its a long camino, but you.may have to plan each days albergue as, I can imagine, they will start to wind down. I have some great memories (and aches) thinking about the Norte, my favourite by far, one highlight that sticks, is Sobrado dos Monxes, just before you join the Frances....as you can see by the picture (hopefully) its a stunning chapel.

Buen Camino

I have moved this thread into the Camino del Norte section, so further discussion can focus on the route rather than the forum structure..

Dimdog….i wasn’t able to view the picture. Not sure why.

I want to stay in the Albergue in Isla, just after Noja. I think Isla used to be on a stage route. It isn't any longer. Does anyone know if it is signposted to and from Isla??

Lost on Camino Norte between Getaria and Deba on Friday, September 13th. In a black sunglass cloth bag. Please advise if found. Thanks

Gronse offers an alternative and shorter route between Ontón and Castro Urdiales with the caution that it is walking on the N634 highway. We did it today with no problems and enjoyed lovely views...
