Sunny days on Pilgrim ways
What a great summer for walking we are enjoying this year! Not to hot, not to cold, just a kind of right!
We have had a lot walkers new to the Camino del Norte this year from all over the world who are all amazed about the scenery, gastronomy and hospitality over in the north of the Iberian peninsula.
We don't hear many complaints but one that always arises is the lack of nice walking paths. Unfortunately many parts of the route go along roads, of which some are quite busy and dangerous. Especially certain parts in Cantabria. It would be nice to see that change in the future but on the other hand this is the original route that the pilgrims of the north use to take and so really is part of the experience. Of course in the old days the the route went over cart tracks, established trade routes etc and not quite over the asphalted busy roads we have now a days.
