Hi All,

I have 10 days to do the Camino Madrid starting May 13th and have not done one before. I am confused about the following, so any advice would be greatly appreciated:
1. I assume the route for this follows the walking trail, is there a google map any where for backup?
2. How do I find the auberges (is there a directory ?)
3. Any packing advice of what/what not to take.

Thanks
Dave

Hi Dave, judging by the dates, you have finished cycling your camino, how did you get on ?

Hello Bill
Indeed i have finished. It was quiet. Almost too quiet. But once i intersected with the Frances (in sahagun) I met some authentic grims', which was nice. One day I'll cycle the frances too. Spain has remarkable solar and wind farms which was encouraging to see.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Well done, how did you get on with your questions ? Were the albergues easy to find, did you cycle the walking camino ? And tips on what to take, leave behind, ? I have walked the Frances , SJdPP to muxia, last August in the heat , and the Primitivo this April, Oviedo to Fisterre, I will walk some more caminos, but planning a camino from Ayrshire to Santiago and back with two wheels :).

Ivan. I believe I can rent two bikes through you between Burgos and Leon. Can you let me know if this is possible? I plan to arrive in Burgos on 11 May and start cycling the next day. Thanks
