    Comment by 'Un Peregrino Siempre' in media 'the arch at Cáparra'

    Wonderful; spare yet motivating. You can feel the solitude and the ages

    Walking Partner Camino Madrid - Fall 2017

    Hi Zrexer I'm hoping to walk the CdM - Sahagun - Santiago - Finisterre route in September 2017 but the dominoes all have to fall in the right sequence. I was thinking first weekish in September but have a little flexibility. I walked the Frances in 2015 but have some unfinished business. I...

    A Village to Village Guide to Hiking the Camino de Santiago [Paid]

    I prefer this guide to Brierly (I bought both). The maps seemed a little better and there was a little less "guided spirituality" (I prefer to make my own way in this regard).

    Eating on the Camino de Madrid

    My apologies if this has been beaten to death but my search didn't turn up anything specific. How difficult is it to find bars/tiendas/mercados on the CdM that are reliably open? On the Frances as everyone knows most every little pueblo has a bar or three. From what I'm gathering, not so on...

    Suggestions for Boots on Camino

    FWIW; I walked the Camino in May - June of this year in Brooks Adrenaline ASR 11 GTX trail runners in great comfort with no problems. I'm 6'3" and 275lb (1.9m; 125kg). I'd say maybe 10 - 15% of the pilgrims I encountered were in similar lightweight shoes. In the end I think it boils down to...
