I am very interested in walking from Le Puy to St. Jean in July. I've completed several other Caminos, so I am afraid I'm a little too casual with my prep for this one. I going to spend the next few days digging for info online, but if anyone would be willing to answer any of the queries, I...
Hi folks. I am hoping someone might be able to get me researching for the right route. I've walked several caminos (Portuguese, del Norte, French and a few smaller ones). I've booked to fly into Malaga in late October. I am keen to see Granada, and my walking partner is interested in seeing...
Just about to kick of my second short late October early Nov Camino. I'm seeing lots of the albergues as either closed, which is fine as it's entering November, but many of the albergues are full according to a well used reservation site. Even the privados in Pamplona are all booked out, which...
I'm having issues with Alsa.com It keeps returning temporarily unavailable.
Has anyone travelled from Reus airport up to the Camino Frances. I'm thinking Logrono. Pamplona would be a plan B.
Just looking to join a few pilgrims and walk for a week.
Flight lands at 11am (ish). Any advice...
I managed to get a week off work and snapped up flights into Reus outside Barcelona. I have walked Camino Frances, del Norte & Baztan but I don't really know anything about this part of Spain.
Would anyone be able to tell me if there would be albergues open from Zaragoza to Logrono? I'm...
Hi everyone, I'm going to start working my way through the forum discussions on this, but I thought I'd post for advice too.
I have walked the Frances, Portuguese, Del Norte, Primitivo and Francegina and Baztan, all in the summers (July /August).
This year, I have a window of 14 days walking...
We are planned to travel to Portugal next week, to walk some of the camino there. There seems to be considerable concern about the current spike in COVID cases in Portugal. Is anyone currently in Portugal that can advise us as to whether we should hold off travelling for now?
I am in a position where I can walk for about 9 days on the (Portuguese) Camino. There are a couple of considerations. My partner has already walked from Lisbon to Tomar, so walking from Lisbon would be a little repetitive for her at this time. I have walked from Lisbon to Santiago, but years...
I was wondering if anyone has any experience of walking the Via de la Plata, or any other Camino that might be suitable for the early months of the year. I have some time coming in January or February and am looking for ideas.
Would the la Plata be suitable? Albergues open? Weather reasonable...
I have the last week of October off (9 days really) and am wondering if I can get some recommendations. I think, due to my partner's work commitments, I may be walking alone this time. I have walked the Camino Frances, Portuguese, Del Norte, Primitivo and Francegina over the years.
I'm...
Just arrived yesterday in Leon from Poland. Spain passenger locator form checked on both sides of journey.
Very little other change. Madrid airport was very busy.
Leon had lots of pilgrims. Private albergue had many pilgrims too.
We walked today and met numerous others. We estimate 40 guests...
Is there still an option to stay in Samos? I missed it years ago and would like to take that option if still possible. Any information welcome and appreciated.
Does anybody know if the albergue at O' Cebreiro is open, or if it is under renovation? I'm planning a stop but am considering shortening the day and staying at Ruitelan, if it is open.
I would like to get to O' Cebreiro but think a more comfortable evening is preferred to a Spartan night on a...
I'm currently in Poland and have heard that there is a Camino going through Poland. I've tried researching a little but I'm not finding a lot.
Has anyone walked any Camino route in Poland? I'm flexible with starting points etc but with restrictions on travel to Spain, I'm looking for a route...
Every year for the last five years I have departed for a month long camino on June 30th. Tomorrow will be a frustrating day. I will walk the local woods again, for the hundreth time this year, and try not to reflect on the fact that travelling to another adventure is out for now. It isn't easy...
Hi guys, I put a post up way back in April asking for routes from Bayonne, and some amazing people pointed us to the Voie de la Neve. We walked from Biarritz to St Jean, it was amazing.
So, having learned about the Baztan we booked to walk this week, for a week, to Pamplona. Anyway, with...
Plan changes mean I’m not going to SJDP to start my walk as I’ve a small medical issue lately. I don’t think the big climb would be good.
I’m flying into Biarritz, but now I don’t know what to do, or where to go. Pretty lost for ideas actually.
I thought maybe a bus to pamplona but it doesn’t...
