Yes thats right. We where adviced to only follow old arrows after. Sometimes local shops bars paint yellow arrows to lead you to their spots. Detours etc. Still the via dl plata is a long and lonely one. I hope it is safe enoug.
Correct, we all where surching along the way...so sad and to know we walked just a few meter from where she was found. Stay on the old signs. Because detours lead you to bars, shops and so on. Just stay allert and enjoy the walk
I stick to my first plan and leave from Salamanca. I believe to have read its a long stage? Is there possibiliy to cut the stage, for its the first day of walking? And another question about the Gronze app, is it only in Spanish written?
And I love the heat. I start early just before sunrise, magical moment...enouh water and some food. I will survive and I also enjoy the camino on my own. The full attention, the contemplation, you know. Maybe I meet some pelgrims in the albergues, would be nice to have a conversation or sharing...
Thanks! Im not scared, but on my first camino there was a girl missing around Astorgas and the police adviced not to walk alone on these stretches. 2015 unfortunately found but not alive. Now I dont want to frighten anyone because the camino has always given me a safe vibe.
Im lanning to walk...
Hi thanks for the positive vibe...for Im starting from Salamanca 21 june. Yes Summer. Is it safe for a woman by herself middle age? This is my 7th camino and I the solitude would be nice this time although would be lovely to meet other pelgrims in the albergues. Can you give some advice on that...
Hi guys!
Starting in June but from Caceres or Salamanca. It seems a long etappe from Caceres 33km. Is it possible to find an albergue in between? It seems the albergue Embalse de Alcantara is temporay closed? Is it hard to find accomodaton in between the well known etappas up to Salamanca?
Thank you Laurie, its my 7th, never made reservations than in Sjpdp starting day and Santiago. I love the sober municipals and correct the dont take resevations.
So you liked it? Lovely feeling to look forward to! If you have have more nice places, let me know!
Grtz Renee
