Hi
After finishing the camino frances, i now want to try a el camino del norte and starting up in july doing the stage from irun to bilbao. I would be grateful if any of you could recommend me some goog books/guide books on the camino del norte.
What is the price level like, compared to the camino frances? Is one week from Irun to Bilbao ok?

I think a visit to these websites might help you with your plans.

http://www.caminosantiago.org/cpperegri ... norte.html

The route follows the coast and is called the Camino de la Costa from Irún, Oiartzun, Errenteria, Pasajes, San Sebastián, Orio, Zarautz, Guetaria, Zumaia, Itziar, Deba, Mutriku, Markina, Zenarruza, Mendata, Guernika, Larrabetzu to Bilbao.
Click on "Albergues" for a list of refuges on the route.

And Eric Walker's site:
