    Bodenaya Albergue Update: Under New Ownership?

    I know that Bodenaya was/is for sale...bittersweet that David and Celia can pursue another dream. But looking forward to another walk on the Primitivo, I was curious about the albergue? Open with new owners? Still for sale? And if it is NOT open, I remember another albergue, maybe 1/2 mile...

    La Robla Municipal open?

    Hello, Just now reviewing my plans for SS connecting to Primitivo in September. I assume the muni in La Robla is now open? Can someone please confirm? Calling 2 days prior is enough notice? Any favorite places to eat in La Robla?

    Monastery in Cornellana

    Just "re-worked" my Primitivo trek and I'm intrigued by the monastary in Corellana. Has anyone stayed there recently? Is it actually AT the monastary, or in a separate building? And do you know if there's food in town...like a bar or restaurant?

    Domingo & David?

    I almost know the responses Im going to get even as I write this. I'm planning our stages for a September trip. Oviedo to San Juan De Villapananda clocks in at 30 K...but of course I've hear all about the wonderful Domingo. Should I push on past Grado just to experience him? And what about...

    Kmz maps for Primitivo and San Salvador?

    I got hooked on using maps.me on the VF in Italy. I had several great people who helped me access the tracks. I have to believe there’s a similar set for the San Salvador and the Primitivo?

    COvid Testing

    Does anyone know where we might get a Covid test in Lucca? It will be our final stop before getting on a train for an early morning flight from MIlan. The other options I guess would be Massa of possibly Aulla. Just wondering if pharmacias will be offering?

    Lose a leg from Aigle to Luccca

    We have a problem...we have to pick up 1 day of hiking in order to meet our goal of being in Lucca on the 11th of October. I think our best bet is just to edit one less amazing day, than trying to change the whole itinerary. Several have suggested something in the rice fields. Looking for...

Looks like the next stop with lodgins is MIraldo de Terme...but that makes for a LONG day. Anyone have...

    Big Cities on the VF

    MY friend and I will be leaving in September from Aigle and heading to Lucca. We both love the small villages of the Caminos and tend to become overwhelmed when we hit "big" cities, often preferring to stay in a smaller town on one side or the other. Asking for advice though...are there any...

    VF Stages: Fidenza to Fornovo di Taro?

    I think this seems like a LONG hilly stage. Womdered if others broke it in Costamezzana (as suggested in Lightfoot) or Medesano? Or just pushed thru for the 34K? Thoughts?
