    Efren, you were absolutely right to take the Metro but it's a shame you did not take one down the East side of the river and experience the 125 year old famous BIZKAIA transporter bridge across to Portugalete. It's also a shame you missed the Guggenheim Museum (but not if you are not a modern art fan!......I am not).

      Agree with you, Michael...what a miss not seeing the museum, even from the outside...The camino is not only woods and beaches. It is also architecture...The camino is everything that it takes...

    We did the Norte for the second time in 2019 and it rained EVERY DAY (except one) we had storms, thunder &lightning, hail and gales but we finished it 😆 The Primitivo in 2022 at least we know the weather will be better this time. Loving your vlogs Efrèn. Greetings from Australia

    There is a bypass road out of Zamudio that bypasses Bilbao to the north. It was a breeze, great walk, wide path along bypass road, and didn’t have to take the metro. Bypass 737, goes to Portugalete, 11 miles. 😊

      Excellent to know, and so intriguing I had to go look it up!
      It's the GR 228 Bilboko Inguruko and shares the Norte for a few KMs then splits off. The 1ST split is at La Imnmaculada Hijas de Jesus ikastetxea (keep left to continue the 228) and 2ND at the intersection Don Bosco Birbilgunea. (I used Waymarked Trails to view this route.)

    Camino Norte, 2nd time round watching and just as stunning 👍
    If you are considering a new project in the future Efren maybe the Camino Mozarabe from Almería?
    By all accounts the longest Camino in Spain (1420 km) and probably less rain.....does sound very tempting ✌️

    That albergue in Onton looked wonderful (coffee from a Bialetti moka pot, even!) Its Google listing says it's permanently closed, but the albergue's Facebook page says it's temporary. Hope it's the latter & Giuseppe is just riding out the coronavirus somewhere safe like the rest of us. Thank you for the vlog & Felices Pascuas Efrén!

    There are 3 ways to go fm Bilbao to Portagoleta, the humpback route, up and over the hill to the west approx 17 or 21kms, or walk along the east or west side of the river. I took the east side; flat, easy, 12kms. Many people chose the metro - don't find despair - this stage is industrial yet romantic (for the men).

    Happy Easter Efren!
    We're really enjoying this camino series!
    It's nice that you included an interaction with a local. On our camino Frances, we had multiple situations where locals were extremely helpful to keep us from making a wrong turn. Especially in the cities where the markings aren't obvious.
    I also appreciated that you took the subway. You have nothing to prove and it makes sense to skip the section that you skipped. Bravo.
    We are planning to do the Camino Norte in the next year or so. After watching this stage, especially, I think that we should go in September / October. Maybe we will be able to work a day at the beach into our camino.

    • @Walk_with_Efren
      @Walk_with_Efren  4 роки тому +5

      try changing resolution in the video's setting to 1080 or higher. Portugalete could be a country but at the moment on field, on the ground, as I'm walking it is a suburb from my POV 😉.
      This is not a doc but my experience as I walk.
