  • Experience the Camino Primitivo (Day 1 Oviedo Grado) vicariously through Grandma Sally(70) and Grandpa Doug(75). This video features the camino, not our happy faces! You'll see the beautiful countryside of the reportedly most difficult of all the Caminos de Santiago. #hiking #grandma #grandpa #caminodesantiago #caminoprimitivo #oviedo.

    My jaw dropped when I saw the title of this CZcams video! I’ve wanted to hike the full Camino De Santiago for years now and now I get to watch my favorite CZcamsrs do it? Wow! Can’t wait to follow along!

      Thank you. That first day, we just kept walking. I kept saying, "Are we there yet?" The amazing thing was that after a night's rest, we got up and did it again! We were never sore or had any physical issues. A miracle and a blessing.

      ​@@HikingwithgrandmaandgrandpaIt doesn't matter if it took you so long, the important thing is that first of all you are well, that you enjoyed hiking the Camino de Santiago and that you shared this experience with all of us, making us feel as if we were living the Camino with you. Thank you, we appreciate it!😍🥳
      I also have a question: will you also do some walking in Italy? It seems to me that you had talked about it.... There are some really beautiful routes, especially in the Alps and the Dolomites, but some flatter routes are also good, for example the Cammino di San Francesco, where there are also many signs explaining the history of San Francesco. It is also very fascinating! Anyway, thank you very much for your videos, they always bring a smile to my face!

    oh hi , when you wrote grandma / grandpa, I said let me watch you guys as to how you are doing on the hardest Camino, I turn 71 very soon, a bit disable with a bad knee, I might still take a chance in Sep, thanks for the beautiful views and the food looks yummy x take care and stay safe

      Thanks so much! We hike a lot so we felt prepared for the Camino Primitivo. The remarkable thing was how we recovered each day. After the 1st day of nearly 19 miles, I could hardly go up the stairs in our hotel. But the next day I was ready to go! It was a miracle how we recovered each day. We would say we had divine help.

    Did you guys ever thought about doing the Camino de Santiago (Santiago de Compostela)?

    • @saramolla5203
      @saramolla5203 Před 14 dny +2

      They are doing the “Camino de Santiago”, there are different routs and all of them are “El Camino de Santiago” because all of them end in Santiago de Compostela. In fact, el “Camino Primitivo” is the oldest rout and I suppose the original.

    • @Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa
      @Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa  Před 14 dny +3

      That last comment was correct. There are 7 main routes to Santiago de Compostela, and a few lesser known and traveled. We chose Primitivo because it had less road walking and is harder. Haha!
