The Camino is one of the easiest routes to follow considering the long-distance hiking trails of the world. It is well waymarked and runs essentially in very humanized areas, but this does not mean that you do not have to take certain precautions.

Do not be alarmed, what we are going to comment on are precautions based on common sense, like when you leave your house and make sure that the tap is closed.

During days of a few hours of light, a lot of rain, etc. it is necessary to plan the stage well in advance to avoid surprises.

But you will have a few stages that run through more remote areas, such as the stage from St Jean to Roncesvalles on the French Way or the part between La Mesa and Gradas de Salime on the Primitive Way. For these stages, we highly recommend that if for some reason the night falls and you arrive late, you contact us directly, or the accommodation, so we can react and do not start worrying about whether something has happened. Thus, unnecessary worries can be prevented.
