Porto to Santiago (2020)
Just day dreaming of future journeys, how's the journey from Madrid, French, invernio to Santiago?
Thanks
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

Good very doable, Inverano a little a little quieter after French. Madrid also good and quieter. All well weymarked and enough infrastructure. Good luck
 
Okay, sounds positive.
When I do get the chance to travel solo again, I'll be craving a long camino, and how cool would it be to fly into Madrid and just start walking!

It really isn't a long camino. About 320K.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

By the time I reach Santiago, should be long enough.:).
Anyhow, 320Km is a fair distance, long enough to impress my less-active work colleagues.

But, who am I kidding, the way life is right now, I'm not fussy, show me some yellow arrows and I'll be content....

Buen Camino.

That's what I did last year more or less, although with a slightly different route: Madrid, a bit of the Frances, Salvador, Primitivo. I didn't try walking from the airport, though. I took the Metro into Madrid and walked from the front door of where I used to live in that city.

It is 320km to Sahagun. Longer if you keep walking to Santiago. By the time I was done last year (I walked on to Finisterre/Muxia), it was more like a 1000km (starting in the south end of Madrid, with a few detours along the way).
