Well i don’t entirely agree! I’m Swedish , so from the north, and here we are lots of touchers and huggers. Kisses haven’t been the thing here but has spread (in some groups of younger people mostly) from further south. Mostly air kisses. I’m seventy plus ( age just to show that that isnt so...
I’d say it’s too late. Maybe not for the first part until Granada, but to walk the inner Andalucía and Extremadura in June is risky. You could get real massive heat. I walked the Mozárabe from Granada in 2011 and from Almería last year. Was in Córdoba may 12th the first time and the heat was...
Hi! I can’t answer your questions about weather but did this Camino last year in April and loved it. The others that answered said to contact Nely and of course you must. The association she belongs to referred to as “the Amigos” is: Asociación Jacobea de Almería Granada Camino Mozárabe. The one...
Thank you for info! Good to know.
Hillier than the first part of the Mozárabe as well? Cause that was quite ok for me last year. (Up - no problems, down - hard on the knees!) Many of the northern routes I’ve been recommended seem hilly. And so beautiful! (been checking them out in different...
Yes lots of choices indeed! Well the southern route that had the handful of other pilgrims I kind of wanted (as I’m walking alone) was the Mozárabe last year. But I’m not into walking that again so soon. (By the way: Loved that one as well, especially on to Granada. And the organisation in...
Thanks for suggestions! I have a friend who walked Ruta de la Lana this April-May. Firstly he said that it should be walked in springtime, secondly he met only two other pilgrims on the whole way to Burgos…
But I’d like to walk it! Maybe next spring.
Hello all!
I need advice! Been walking caminos for more than twenty years, sometimes whole ones, long and short, and sometimes parts of longer ones. Always in spring/early summer. (CF, Via de la Plata-Sanabrés, Portugués from Porto, Norte, Camino del sur, Mozárabe de Almería-Vdpl-Sanabrés)...
Generally well marked in my opinion, but you have to keep your eyes open! These ones are very small. The Wise Pilgrim app helped me a lot last time I walked. Especially the online map.
Buen Camino!
Marit (via de la plata lover)
Good! Since then I have more information about the two associations as I’ve been in contact with both. Seems like there was one that then split into two. Don’t ask me why. Being one they had the Amigos in their name. I think that is why people refer to them. But the one that manages the...
Hello and thank you!
I think that I have to start with Facebook. Been avoiding it for years and years but seems good to have when walking this camino for example.

Hi!
Well I'm avoiding easter too. The plan is to start the week after easter. But haven't booked any flight yet. Oh so you have walked in our mountains?! I once walked a bit of Kungsleden from Abisko. But only for a couple of days.Had one year old toddler on my back! i did walk in Padjelanta...
Hello Robi!
Thanks! I checked into this site and will most certainly explore it more. But it seems like the asociation they, and your friend, refer to is not the Amigos, but the other one....?
