Camino del Norte – Bilbao to Santander (April 2026)

As you may recall, I will be walking part of the Camino del Norte, from Bilbao to Santander.  This hike will raise funds for OSCAR’s Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity and Elvington’s PTA.

I will be covering a total distance of 110km from the Basque city of Bilbao to the coastal town of Santander, Cantabria. The hikes will be challenging, with some long days of up to 55km and several significant climbs.

The walk will take place over four days, from Friday 3rd to Monday 6th April 2026.  Any money raised will be split equally between the two nominated charities.

A big thank you to everyone who has already donated — the current total stands at 91% of our £1,000 target (£910).  To donate, please visit: JustGiving Page
