Time of past OR future Camino

Twice walked from St Jean to Estella and once from Sarria to Santiago. Maybe someday I'll find the time to do the entire walk.
I've found the time. Just completed SJPP to Santiago. 25 Aug to 1st Oct, 2016.
And now the Portuguese from Lisbon.

Would a peregrino find the way well signposted?

As has been said already on here, many times,do a search to find the answer. Top R/H of this page, type in "Voie da la Nive", and you will get the previous discussions on this topic. As I understand, just follow the River Nive......

Edited for typo

Great information, you'd think I'd know but I only walk the trail along the coast down to St. Jean de Luz and Hendaye. It's amazing how many things we never do that are just sitting in our own backyard!

La Voie de la Nive starts in Bayonne. At least, we started in Saint Jean and ended up in Bayonne;-) It was mostly (not entirely) well sign-posted, although there is now one fewer sign than when we went by. We picked one up from the tall grass at the base of a tree and pocketed it. And there was one on the door where we stayed in Bayonne - our host had done the same! The signs tell you whether you are walking towards Baiona or Ronceveaux.
These notes are useful, but not infallible. http://vppyr.free.fr/pages_transversales/voie_nive/vnive.php?etp=accueil

First two photos are typical. Third one is the only one that big! Fourth one is for the Baztan route and you don't want to follow that (unless you want to end up in Pamplona)
