    Hotel & Hostel recommendations for Lisbon, Porto, & Via do Condo

    I wonder if anyone has any recommendations for the following: (1) an inexpensive hotel centrally located in Lisbon (we are going to be there for a couple of days & want to be able to get out & see the city) and (2) either an inexpensive hotel or hostel centrally located in Porto (also will try...

    Baggage Transport on Camino Portugues

    I am trying to plan a Camino walk for a group of 5 or 6 people for the spring (May or June) and we really want to get our backpacks transferred between albergues. So far, I have only been able to find companies that provide this service along with making reservations in hotels/inns, etc., but...

    Anything published on coastal route?

    I am trying to plan a walk from Porto to Santiago for myself and a couple of friends, but I am uncertain about whether we can really walk the coast after the first stage. I guess I am asking a couple of questions: is there anything published with the route & places to stay? are there any...

    Which section of Le Puy route should I do? And when?

    I have walked the final 1/3 of the Camino Frances (Astorga to Santiago) in 2010 & then a shorter part of the Camino del Norte in 2011 (beautiful but pretty difficult I thought). Now I am thinking about doing a route in France & it doesn't really matter to me in particular where I start or end...

    Just completed short portion of the Camino del Norte

    I have a blog with both photos and descriptions (in both Spanish & English) of our brief, yet intense, walk from San Sebastian to Bilbao (and then to Santander by train). It is a gorgeous walk & I wish that we had been able to do more, but the walking was much more physically demanding than...

    best section of camino norte for abbreviated walk (10-14 day

    I am hoping to return to do another part of one of the Caminos this spring. I walked from Astorga to Santiago in September & am looking for another section (of a less traveled camino) to walk with a friend in the spring. I have been looking at the Camino portugues, but it appears to have a lot...

    Blog of Camino from Astorga to Santiago

    I just finished my first Camino trip & other than horrible blisters, it was fantastic. I have a blog with some really nice photos as well as an accounting of the experience. http://dustyscamino.blogspot.com. I think my friends here in the US have really enjoyed the blog & learning about a...

    bus to astorga

    I need to know how close/far the airport in Santiago is from the bus station. I need to buy a ticket for the bus to Astorga, but don't know if it is reasonable that I could catch a bus that leaves 50 minutes after my flight arrives or must I wait until the night bus (leaving me to arrive in...

    Credencial in Astorga?

    I will be starting in Astorga on Sept. 7th & want to know where I can get a compostela? I won't be arriving until late the night before, so I will need to get one when I first begin walking. Any info would be helpful. Dusty from Austin Subject corrected by moderator

    Astorga

    I originally was going to start in Cebreiro, but now I am thinking that I would like to walk further, so I am planning on starting in Astorga around Sept 7th. If anyone has information on getting here from Santiago, a recommendation for a hotel where I can make a reservation for the first night...

    Madrid to O Cebreiro?

    I am trying to find the best way to get from Madrid to O Cebreiro: is it to fly to Santiago & take bus or car from there (how much?) or take bus from Madrid? I am coming in September & need to figure out whether I will need tickets ahead of time or will I be able to find tickets from the Madrid...

    best way to get to O Cebreiro?

    I plan to walk for 2 weeks & have been thinking to start in O Cebreiro & then walk to Finisterre, but it looks like getting to O Cebreiro from Madrid is a bit difficult--buses only leave early from the airport & I am afraid I might miss the connection. The other option is to fly into Santiago &...

    Out of the Texas Heat to the Camino Frances in September

    Hi. I am from Austin, Texas & am planning on walking a portion of the camino frances (beginning in O Cebreiro to Finisterre) in September. Dates are not finalized, but I have already started packing (at least in my mind). I am reading everything I can locate & am a bit obsessed at this time...
