    Back to Faro

    Prior to dog sitting I went and walked 7 days from Faro to Fornalhas Velhas. Now I am heading back on Monday to Faro once more. Not sure yet if I try to get back where I left off or have two weeks out from Faro once more? I've a bit more time and can't come back prior to the half term break in...

    Filling in pieces of the Camino Puzzle

    After a mental day getting to Bordeaux I just couldn't face the monotony of Forêt des Landes so I bought a ticket to the start of the Camino Frances to see if I can get into the Camino "buzz". I've spoken to a few folks and offered them advice: I even took an Australian gentleman to the Gîte...

    From Basel...

    Hello Forum, I have a flight to Basel/Mulhouse/Freiburg coming up. I was meant to be walking in Germany with a friend, not a Jakobsweg/Chemin this time, but he's unable to make it as he's moving home currently ... I've walked from Geneva previously, but I got accommodation with a guy who is part...

    LIVE from the Camino @futurefjp on the Camino de Madrid

    The 1% won. Here I am in a Manolo Bakes contemplating the day ahead towards Tres Cantos with a barely sufficient nights kip surrounded by snoring and the sounds of Madrid revelry on early Saturday morning. Let's see how far towards the Camino Frances I get before I run out of funds and the rail...

    Madrid, Segovia and León?

    LIVE from the Camino From Vézelay tomorrow, September 12, 2022

    After an un-joyful day in Paris yesterday, waiting several hours to stay at the Maison D'Accueil Ephrem, I am passing on my original plan of Beauvais to Orleans. This afternoon I catch a train from Bercy to Vézelay and start towards Limoges from there... I only have 9 or 10 days on that route...

    Good morning Peregrinos... I've a flight to Reus on the 6th June and I have until the 19th when I must return to England for obligations from the 20th. I saw this website... https://xacobeoebremontsia.com/ And got a little excited. I've since spoken to the local Junta who say there is only...

    LIVE from the Camino Left Paris on 30th March 2022

    Pélerins, It is my intention to stay on the 29th at Ephrem and I was wondering if anyone is heading through Paris or starting from Paris on the 30th March to buddy up along the way? Also I'm am still not sure which route out of Paris I am going on and will probably decide on the 29th depending...

    Chemin de Compostelle Voie Catalane

    The morning dawns. I'm sat drinking coffee looking out eastward from my eleventh floor window towards Wetherby, where I've been ensconced since June "dog sitting" for friends/acquaintances who have gone on "holiday". Inside, during that time, pressure was building which, without a Camino to look...

    Linking the Camí del Nord o del Canigó to a Camí Catalan

    Good morning, I have found an interesting route through the Pyrenees from around Perpignan, via Prades - the GR83 between it and Mataró. It seems, after a lot of 'no go', I'm on The Way again. Got a flight to Carcassonne on the 6th. Been on the Usual route through there towards Lourdes...

    Caminho do Mar / Trilho das Areias - Senda Litoral

    Back in December I walked, with a three day break (stuck in abysmal weather at Óbidos during curfew/Covid emergency) as far as Figueira da Foz. Getting any stamps in my credential was difficult, after the initial one at the Sé in Lisbon, but I got a couple on the way. Now I'm returning to...

    Morning Forum, I'm heading to Lisbon on Saturday and intend to walk along the Caminho from there, depending on the situation with Hostels, Albergues, etc. I've two nights booked in central Lisbon. It's been such a terrible year ... I'm finding it impossible to recall the last truly "Camino"...

    Two weeks from El Port de la Selva to Monserrat

    Hi folks, This year has been such a swine for my Camino aspirations and nothing got going really since I got back from Luxembourg just prior to Lockdown in the UK from walking Fulda to Metz.

    A left turn

    For a few days I have tried to walk the Chemin Saint Jacques from Strasbourg, but due to the difficulty finding any Abbeye, etc, willing to accept pelerin, I was forced, unhappily, to stay in too many Hotels. Obviously this costs more so I lost my nerve at Colmar. Now I'm heading east into...

    Utrecht to Vézelay

    In the unlikely event the UK government does a U-turn on the Quarantine issue that currently prevents egress to the Netherlands I have booked a flight to Amsterdam on the 1st of July and a night's accommodation in Utrecht. After that I will camp the way as it's the best solution to the current...

    Flight from Manchester to Béziers. From Béziers I'd like to head into Spain to join the route via Girona/Barcelona/Montserrat, etc, after Carcassonne.
