  1. This is the American version of the European Camino…

    I am praying about hiking the "Pilgrim's Trail" this is the Arizona Trail connecting to the Hayduke trail then the American Discovery Trail…once at the ADT you can go East or West…

  2. When is a good time to go where its not to hot or cold, but not to many people around.  I want to do this but I don't want to do it at its peak time.  Does anyone know?
    Plus does this go on all year?     

  3. Anywhere from 20 to 40 euros a day is what I've read. And if you start in St. Jean, that's about 30 to 35 days of walking. I'm budgeting for 30 a day, and I hope to finish in about 35 days. Hope this helps!

  4. @delicatecupcake It also depends on what type of Camino de Santiago travel plan you have: Begginer, Medium, Advance… if you walk more km per day you will finish faster and their by spend less money, but that means sticking to the plan.

  5. @delicatecupcake It depends. The Municipal Albergues are 5 Eu per night and private albergues, around 10 Eu per night (some slightly cheaper). Most restaurants have pilgrims menus for around 10 Eu, unless your planing to cook on a daily basis in the albergues, in that case you have to make sure they have a kitchen available. Anyway to be on the safe side, i would count with 300 Eu for every 10 days, but then again i know people that have spend around 200 around every 10 days.

  6. hey people, good job on completing the journey. but i have 2 questions, while you walk the camino i am wondering, do you lose much weight? i am not build very heavy, so i dont like to lose many weight. is it possible to complete the camino without losing too much weight?? i really am planning to walk the camino one of these days in my life but i dont like it if i lose too much weight, thank you very much in advance!! i have respect for the people who did this!
