What’s your favorite Camino?

Time of past OR future Camino
July 2024
I completed my first Camino (solo) in July and August (Camino Frances) and loved everything about it. I’m not an overly social person but the Frances allowed me to socially interact when I wanted to, and to be alone when I preferred that. I am planning ahead for my second Camino but can’t imagine anything topping my experience on the Frances. So, my debate is whether to do the Frances again or to try a different route. My question to others that have done several caminos, including the Frances, what has been your favorite Camino?
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Ahh, you've come to the right place for lots of answers to your questions. If I have to answer for myself, nothing was like "the first time" when I walked for the second time. But that has nothing to do with the fact that it wasn't CF, on the contrary. But, when you ask specifically, I would recommend Primitivo. Social if you will, but a more "real" camino feel, as I experienced it, not commercialized in the same way. More nature, more non-asphalt, no marker drawing on rocks, no large groups of bus tourists (that I saw). But it is individual, others probably answer other routes as their favourite.
That being said, tomorrow I will start CF again. To experience it again and perhaps see the places more thoroughly, in a less popular season. But, now I'm prepared, like the very first time, it will probably never be.
