14. Day - O Cadavo to Vilar de Cas, 15km, Albergue A Pocina de Muniz (railings) - the best Albergue I stayed in yet!
Start with a bit of fog and a bit of rain. The weather changes fast to nice and cloudy hiking weather. In the beginning a bit of...
Thanks to those of you who have wished me Buen Camino pm!
My plan was Salvador/Prim, but 1) cold feet because of a knee (old injury) and 2) would have to rush with no possibilty of short/rest days. Now i have the luxory of not having to be in...
13. Day - A Fonsagrada to O Cadavo, 25km, Albergue Porta Santa (railings)

9. Day - Pola de Allande to Berducedo, 20km, Casa Marques (mini railings)
The way up to Puerto de Palo is physically challenging, as is the rest of way to Berducedo - but it is doable. Enough breaks and slow walking brings me up and also down...
@James1 I walked from Campiello to Berducedo via Hospitales. Views on the way up then into cloud for 2 hours. I found the descent challenging due to rocky and steep trails. Stayed in Alberque Marquez, clean and quiet.
Yesterday walking from...
8. Day - Campiello to Pola de Allande, 16km, Donativo Polagrino (no railings).
Cold, windy and rainy. Not a lot of rain, but enough to wear my poncho. The wind is sometimes really chilly. The way itself is sometimes really beautiful, but also...
