[QUOTE="peb, post: 610595, member: 79344"] The two main changes in route that I highlighted in my post (at Vilar do Colo and to Hospital de Bruma) affect the Ferrol to Santiago part, not the La Coruna part. The new route from Ferrol to Hospital de Bruma joins the La Coruna route at San Bartolomeu and then is flat as it runs along the main C-542 road past the electricity sub station before turning off to Hospital de Bruma. After Hospital de Bruma, apart from the fork going downhill in the suburbs of Santiago which I mentioned (and where I am sure 95% people would choose to go right / down, instead of left and up as I did), the post Hospital de Bruma route is well waymarked, including through Sigueiro itself, even if the path to Sigueiro takes you alongside the motorway and past Sigueiro, the route takes you along (better) small roads instead of behind the Hotel San Vicente as some guidebooks suggest. I cannot vouch for the route from La Coruna to Hospital de Bruma, but if you stay in a hotel in La Coruna, picking up a good city map of La Coruna would be a good idea, because I am not sure how well the Camino is waymarked through the city? The Cicerone guidebook suggests that La Coruna to Hospital de Bruma at 32.5km is a single stage. You would need to be really fit to go this, because, what you need to remember is that this is all uphill from sea level at La Coruna. Unless you are trained and fit, I would try to find somewhere to stay in the middle of that first stage, so that you can enjoy the sea views of the first stage. Possibly the new Alberge at Sergude or the off route, Hotel Casa das Veigas in Abergondo? I found the website [URL="http://www.northerncaminos.com"]www.northerncaminos.com[/URL] which is the Cicerone guide webpage useful for listing accommodations, even though I then booked independently [/QUOTE]
