[QUOTE="bjorgts, post: 1176775, member: 367"] This spring my husband and I walked the Camino Castellano-Aragonés and the Camino San Olav. It was a great experience! These are caminos with a lot of variety, beautiful landscapes and fine, old Romanesque architecture - and even older. I am not writing a detailed description here now; just bringing up a few points. Ask me if there is anything you are want to know. We went Gallur - Tarazona as the last part of our hike in spring 2022. See own comment and more about it here on the forum. - Tarazona: Nice city. Spend some time there if you can. - Agreda - Soria (Pozalmuro): This is a section that must be divided. There are many small towns. Most of them have neither accommodation nor food. The place to spend the night is Pozalmuro. There is an albergue in the old school. We had a good time there. It is Carmen at the bar who has the key. We had some trouble getting hold of her on the phone beforehand, but eventually succeeded. Unfortunately, I don't remember the phone number. Don't count on the bar always being open. Pozalmuro is a very small village, and we had the impression that the bar was open around the weekend, because then a lot of people come to their second homes. We were lucky and came there on a Sunday. Carmen made a good plato combinado for us, and big bocadillos for the next day, because the bar wasn't open then. The albergue: We had everything we needed in the albergue. This was a cold spring day, and Carmen turned on the heat for us. That was a big plus. - Pozalmuro - Soria: We are now both over 70 years old, and this is too long a stage for us. We walked to Fuensaúco and took a bus from there to Soria. Therpasa runs the route there. There was a bus at 17:52 and 20:52. Buy a ticket in advance, otherwise you risk the bus not stopping. Also make sure to stand at the right entrance to the city. The bus stops at the entrance at the top of the hill and not down on the plain. We got scolded by the driver for standing in the wrong place. - Soria: Spend a day there! It is a nice town! - Soria - San Leonardo: This part of the camino can be divided in different ways if you can stay at a Casa Rural/Hostal/Hotel. We took a taxi a few kilometers out of Soria to get our plan up and running. - Cañon de Rio Lobos: Take a detour from San Leonardo to Hontoria! Good help at the tourist information. You have to take a taxi from San Leonardo to the mouth of the Cañon de Rio Lobos, and then a fantastic day through the canyon awaits! Birds, wildlife, the canyon itself, the Eremita... Do it! - Santo Domingo de Silos: If you have plenty of time, spend a day there. I spent a lot of time in the cloister, just enjoying the sight of the archways and columns. (Something shown in my video.) - Covarrubias: One of the "most beautiful towns in Spain". For Norwegians, it is a special place. I could tell an exciting story about the Norwegian princess (Kristina) who was married to a Spanish prince and was buried in Covarrubias in 1262. - Camino de San Olav: From Burgos to Covarrubias there is a camino for Sant Olav. We came from the south, and therefore walked it in the opposite direction. It takes three (four) days. It exists because of Princess Kristina and her wish for a chapel for Sant Olav. It was not built until now - 2011. It is mostly Norwegians who walk this route. It was nice. (See the video.) On Camino de San Olav you depend on some benevolent Casa Rurales, but we had no problems getting a place to sleep. - These caminos are hereby recommended! [/QUOTE]
