Hi Alex,

I already had it in my mind. I did El Camino el Santiago last year, and I want to travel abroad this time (I'm Spaniard). Did you do the full way or just some weeks? Do you remember any good website/guides to prepare it? Any way of contacting you?

thanks!

I walked it this year and found http://www.shikokuhenrotrail.com/ is a great site for information, particularly about the individual temples. It has a forum as well where you can ask questions.

It took me 50 days but I did 20 extra temples and had a few diversions (some intentional, some not).

You can find my contact details on my journal http://wasaking.com/introduction/

I lived in Tokushima for a year and my advice is to make sure you avoid summer (15 June - 15 Sept) the weather is insanely hot and humid. Wikipedia says the trek should take 30-60 days so starting around April 15 might be about right.
