Information on the coastal Route

Ask, share and learn about this camino.

The Route: The route used by Christian pilgrims when Moslem domination had extended northwards and was making travel along the Camino francés difficult and dangerous. More at the CSJ website, and in their guide. Also have a look at pictures from the various stages here.

Willie,

Some of the stretches of the description follows the route that the different Associations in the different provinces have made.
I would say that on some parts they made a nice route but sometimes this means that you walk far too much kilometers and that is not nice in the steep hills as I experienced this year.
Besides I found it 'killing" to walk 34 or 37 km on a day on the North-route........not one day real flat walking as on the Frances route.

Any advice is helpful as it is many years since I have attempted something like this.

Annette's diary is especially worth reading.
