ℹ️ Before you shoulder the pack and take that first step across the Pyrenees, there are a few things we really wish someone had sat us down and told us.
In this video, we’re sharing 5 things you should know before walking the Camino Francés — the famous 500-mile pilgrimage across northern Spain from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port to Santiago de Compostela.
The Camino Francés is more than just a long walk. It’s blister management and breathtaking mesetas. It’s café con leche at sunrise. It’s friendships formed somewhere between Navarra and Galicia. It’s spiritual, physical, emotional… and occasionally uncomfortable in ways no one puts on Instagram.
Whether you’re planning your first Camino or just dreaming about it, this is the practical, trail-tested advice we’d give a friend over dinner.
If you’re new here — we’re Cruisin’ with the Colemans. We walk historic routes, chase meaningful miles, and share the lessons we learn along the way. From the Via di Francesco in Italy to Spain’s ancient pilgrim paths, we believe adventure and reflection belong together.
👉 Drop your Camino questions in the comments — we love hearing where you are in your journey.
