Hi Burlington
I recently went back to walk as far on the Vdlp as I could (this time started in Mérida on around March12 .. strength is limited at the moment with knee problems among others …. I was remembering the flat bits from 2019. (But...
As A Gudiña was supposed to be my starting point, I decided to work around Campobecerros. I will now start my Camino (in 2,5 weeks) in Verín and walk Verín - Laza as first stage. I booked a room in the Parador in Verín, so lodging should be...
I start walking the Sanabres from Rionegro del Puente in less than two weeks. Short of a tornado, my "goal" is to use no taxis or buses the whole way to Santiago unless I get injured...fingers crossed.🤞
I am flying into/out of Madrid. The hotel I am staying at in Madrid before flying out was happy to hold my bag for free…they even gave me a cookie before leaving for the train station!

I am happy to call on behalf of anyone else, since I have a...
@Camino Chrissy it wouldn't be ideal, but you could if you have to reserve 2 nights somewhere and then cab back and forth...
Just a suggestion in case the outcome is not positive here.
I will be walking the Sanabres portion of the VdlP starting in mid April. I have the majority of my lodgings and many reservations sorted.
I want to shorten the 34k stage going from A Gudina to Laza, and planned to stay in Campobecerros, about...
I just accept that I will have to fly a really long distance to get there. I do reuse items, clothes, sleeping bag, pack etc - but I do need new shoes. Apart from shoes my gear lasts me a long time. I am taking stuff on my next one, that I bought...
