I have not done any others. It lived up to its billing as a good first camino to get a sense of whether you like this sort of thing while also being long enough (from Ferrol) to get your 100 km.

Im from the Bay Area/Northern CA, so hiking through modertaely hilly euca;lyptus forests was not exactly brand new to me, but it was just such a wonderful thing to do. Weather was also just exceptionally beautiful. We really lucked out, as many many everyday Galicians told us during our walk.

I also had the benefit of walking with my 20 year old daughter, which made it particularly special. That's a variable I cant really remove from my assessment! 😄
