Generally speaking, very few parts of the Camino would be considered difficult hiking terrain. This is a walking route that is accessible to almost everybody with the odd section where things get more difficult. One of the most difficult days of Camino Frances is the first day as you climb up and over the Pyrenees, while Day 6 of Stage 5 also includes a steep ascent as you climb to the highest point of the French Way, O Cebreiro.
