Compiling a list of refugios that accept tents

David

Veteran Member
Time of past OR future Camino
First one in 2005 from Moissac, France.
Hi all - as it looks like tenting or sleep matting - in a legal way - is a possible future for some pilgrims I thought we could compile a list of refugios that accept or even welcome tents.

I can think of a few - perhaps when we have as many as we can we could make a sequential list?

so - here just a few to kick this off .....

1. The refugio at Roncesvalles allows tents (even welcomes them when they are busy).
2. Puente la Reina, Santiago Apostal, welcomes tents in their gardens (they also have a campsite and swimming pool).
3. Castrojeriz, Camping Camino de Santiago - refugio and campsite, welcomes tents.
4. Rabanal del Camino, Gaulcelmo (the English one) welcomes tents in their garden.

Also, Cizur Menor, Sanjuanista, has gardens and may possibly begin to allow tents.

there must be so many more that I have forgotten ....

There are also quite a few campsites - St Jean pied de Port has a municipal campsite for a start.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Is Gualcelmo open this year? Miraz is closed on the Norte, it makes sense considering most volunteers are retirees or around that age, it's probably too big a risk + the travelling for a lot of volunteers could be an obstacle.

No I-c, sadly not. The CSJ took the decision not to open Gaucelmo this year.

Hi David -
Here’s one to add to the list ... It’s not a refugio but a campsite which provides a range of plots for tents, motorhomes and caravans, plus it also has cabins. It’s Camping Iratxe, 3km past Estella and a shortish walk on from the Irache fountain. The Camino passes outside their front door.
According to their website the campground has abundant trees, two showers and toilets, washing machines and dryers, clotheslines and sinks. They have a large cafeteria, restaurant and a supermarket, plus a sports leisure pool, jacuzzi and waterfall, plus more. It sounds like a great place to have a rest day!
Their website is campingiratxe.com .
Cheers from Oz -
Jenny

This great David and every one for adding campsites especially the one jennyh94 from oz added it sounds Devine.
I’m going to leave it til next year to see if it all calms down I’m too worried about becoming seriously ill not knowing where I’ll end up?
 
Booking.com has a filter for "campings", but at first view, most of them are not explicit about the availability of this option. They are albergues or hostals.
This webpage, campings.net looks more promising. The info is sketchy and may or may not be updated.
Icons don't represent campings, but stages suggested (so, ignore them). Zoom into the locality, look for the "tent" icon and click the "Más información" link.

As you enter Rabanal del Camino I now remember that there is a large tenting area on the right opposite a cafe/refugio that owns it – very friendly. Marquees are already up, has water, waste, and bathroom facilities.

This campsite list is terribly out of date but is still a good indicator – each site would need to be checked to see if it still exists and what the prices are.

Fantastic list!!!! Thank for compiling.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Is there a similar list or any suggestions for people doing pilgrimage in France? Am planning to do via Gebennensis and then do as far as I get on via Podiensis. Rather than staying in official campgrounds it would be nice to connect with the pilgrims staying in the local "gîte." Am sure I'll need a few breaks from sleeping in a tent, so either way, I will mix it up a bit.
 
Very very interested in this.
I'm planning a cycle from Ireland and back next year and I would rather tent it at the refugio/albergues, cuz a rolling tank makes less noise than my snoring...
 
I just bought a tent to take on my next camino as an option, as I know many albergues have gardens. Plus I love the idea of being away from the snoring hordes!

How about being away from the toilet for the entire night?
Because pilgrims always lock up the albergue door for the night from inside for safety, even if you asked each and every one of them not to do it.
Happened to me in Castro Urdiales.

You may need to include this item on your packing list... :rolleyes:

In which case I would use the bush just like I do in the middle of any stage where there’s no toilet

There are also quite a few campsites - St Jean pied de Port has a municipal campsite for a start.
David, thank you for this information! I am walking the Camino Frances starting at St. Jean Pied de Port on July 12. I am used to wilderness trekking, would probably feel naked if I didn't have my little tent along. I'm not concerned about saving money and want to support the albergues. Just glad to hear that tenting may be an option if everything is booked up.
 
Thanks for all the information. I want to walk in august but for now (as other people stated in a accommodation thread) I also don’t feel comfortable sharing a dorm. Since there seems to be quite a run on private rooms and I don’t think I want to plan each night in advance I am going to take a tent as well.
here is my questions though: as a woman I am always more concerned about safety when biwaking wild so I would prefer legal places close to an albergue. The list of albergues that lets you camp seems quite short. Is anyone on the Frances right now that can confirm more places? Or even reconfirm the list from last June?
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
she has. she has also updated the list with new albergues, doggy albergues and closed albergues, according to gronze. it's here.
'She' has done an AWESOME job! Muchos Gracias 🙏

PS just checking I am navigating to the most recent version... your link takes me to a page where I then press the orange download button on the right side. The doc that opens still says 'March 2020' on the upper right, but actually it is the updated version..?
Cheers, tom

Here is what I have where you can camp at an albergue. Some may be listed above.

1. The Parroquia at Zalbadika before Pamplona (the one with the nuns). They let me camp around the back. Seemed quite happy about it.

2. Sanjaunista at Cizur Menor (the Nights of Malta one). Always camped there.

3. Santiago Apostle up the hill at Puenta la Reina. It has a camping spot.

4. Camp site at Irache just after Estella.

5. San Jaun Bautista at Granon. Has a camping field up the road from the albergue.

6. There is a campsite just before Burgos on the river route. Camping Fuentes Biancas.

7. I have seen people camping at San Bol on the Meseta just after Hornillos

8. La Finca at Poblacion de Campos are happy for you to camp.

9. I have camped outside the Parroqia donativo albergue at Bercianos

10. The municipal at La Virgen del Camino just after Leon is great for camping.

11. If he is still there David just before Astorga lets you camp.

12. Albergue Las Aguedas at Murias de Rechivaldo just after Astorga lets you camp. Lovely place!

13 As you enter Rabanal del Camino there is a place with tents on the right as you enter. It's not an albergue, more of a shop. It is donativo in a nice garden.

14. I think Monte Irago albergue in Foncebadon lets you camp.

15. So does Manjarin just afterwards.

16. The municipal at Molinaseca (just after town) definitely lets you camp.

17. The albergue at La Faba before O'Cebreiro lets you camp.

18. The Xunta at Ribadiso de Baixo after Melide lets you camp (but most put their tents up down the road by the river).

There are many more where I slept outside without a tent.

As for good freecamping spots, thats another story!

Hi All,
If it was me I would get a cheap single person tent. Then spray it down with scotch guard. I have done this in the past and it works great.

Wow! Nice lists… now who knows of an inexpensive (100-150 US ) 2.5 lb single person tent?

I use a Wild Country Zephyros 1 tent because of its light weight. 1.5 kilo. Anything lighter gets expensive real quick. Cheap tents may fail due to how much use it is going to receive. I had my Zephyros 1 on all my caminos and it stood up well, only having to replace the pegs. Though small the door awning is big enough to cover your pack. I even used it on a winter camino.

Decathlon has a lightweight 1 person trekking tent that might be interesting (1,3kg for 130Euros). Haven't tested it, but I do have the older 2 person version (2kg, new version 1,75) which is very nice quality for the price and have even used it in winter. Definitely waterproof. For longer distances I prefer my tiny snugpak ionosphere though (1,5kg). Tents are like shoes, you need to find one that fits your needs!
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
Thank you so much for all info. I noticed that many places have closed or changed their policy about camping. In case some one is currently on the Camino Frances or camped recently, I would be happy to know all camp spots their found…
 
I posted somewhere about the shop/cafe at the end of El Ganso (on the right), I have camped behind it twice, but it was a few years back. Cost was about 8 euros (as I remember), and the toilet, shower, washing area are all available. Obviously I haven't been out for a few years, so can't confirm it is still the same. But if you are passing and don't think you can make it to Rabanal or Foncebadon, you could try there.

I just bought a tent to take on my next camino as an option, as I know many albergues have gardens. Plus I love the idea of being away from the snoring hordes!
Which tent did you choose please.
 
1. The Parroquia at Zalbadika before Pamplona (the one with the nuns). They let me camp around the back. Seemed quite happy about it.

2. Sanjaunista at Cizur Menor (the Nights of Malta one). Always camped there.

1) Zabaldika apparently does not allow tents anymore even though several websites like gronze indicate it as tent friendly (I already tried in 2019, and again this year, firm no). I was too tired to ask why. Maybe someone else who speaks spanish and passes by can ask why it is not allowed anymore.

2) Orden de Malta one does not allow camping anymore also. I offered to pay the same price as for a bed. The hospitalero said the problem ist that they do not own the land around the albergue which is why they can not allow it. Very friendly hospitaleros though.

I also asked at the Zubiri municipal, offering the same price as for a bed - not allowed. The hospitalero said they'd get into trouble with the police (for whatever reason). Then he left the doors of the albergue open after 10pm and at night the youths of the town walked in and out of the albergue, buying stuff at the vending machines of the kitchen, using the albergue as a place to hang out...

Where it IS allowed to camp (recent personal experience from 2022):

- St. Jean, Camping municipal. Right in the city center, ~13€/night.

- According to a leaflet I got at the pilgrim office, bivouac at the french part of the pyrenees is allowed between 7pm-6:00am if you respect the farm animals up there, don't make fire ect.

- Roncesvalles does still allow tents. 4€/night shower and kitchen use included. It is managed by the dutch, who love camping, maybe that's why!

- About 4km after Zubiri, at a small chapel. A former pilgrim who bought it and is trying to renovate it has put up a sign that he will allow pilgrims to camp. Very friendly guy.

- Puente la Reina Padres Reparadores. Nice garden with lots of space and shade. I payed same as for a bed (7€). Fully functional kitchen. Heard from another pilgrim who asked at the albergue with the "camping" on the other side of the river up that hill and she was denied camping there, she was told it was a "camping privado"!? When I asked in 2019 it was expensive and they wanted me to camp far away from the albergue and from the campsite in a field. So apparently not worth climbing up that hill...

- Estella municipal (5€). Only a small patch of grass, but with shade. Kitchen fully equipped and open but only microwaves allowed to use. Enough to prepare a good meal though.

- Los Arcos albergue Isaac Santiago. 6€ instead of 8€, enough shade. Fully functional kitchen.


I'll update this list from time to time while I'm walking.

One advice for those who like to sleep outdoors: albergues that usually say "No" to camping can often be convinced if you first pay for a bed and then ask if it's okay to sleep in the garden *after* you've already payed. You often won't be allowed to put up your tent, because for some reason that is totally unacceptable, but once everybody else has gone to their bunks, you can sleep in the garden/patio without tent.

I've tried this approach several times now, and while the hospis seem to think you must have lost your mind to pay the same money for sleeping outdoors, they at least allowed it.

I won't name these places because they explicitly told me that they usually say "No" to camping, but they also said that most people asking for this expect it to be free. So I hope my approach helps to make them realize that there's business to be made with campigrinos, too, and maybe they're more open to it in the future.

Have camped/slept in albergue gardens / official campgrounds about 1/2 of the time so far on the Francés, and could have done so more often, so it is possible.

Not albergues, but campsites I stayed at so far this year (summer 2022)

Castrojeriz (almost on Camino, when entering town) 10€/pilgrim with tent. Nothing special but has shade and a bar. Very quiet at night.

Carrion de los Condes: Camping next to the park at the river Carrion. You can go swimming in the river (not directly at the camping but in the beautiful park). City center maybe a few hundreds meters away, quite central, not far off camino. Has shade. Not cheap (12€ per person with tent) but ok. Has a bar/restaurant. Very dog friendly (I don't walk with a dog but noticed). Also very quiet at night.

Were you able to take a shower at the places when you camped?
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
Were you able to take a shower at the places when you camped?
Of course! All the albergues where I camped included use of bathrooms and kitchen. Some for the same price as a bed, some cheaper. The campsites had showers too of course :)
 
Some more recent camping experiences:

Cacabelos albergue municipal did allow me to sleep outside (without tent). Was happy I did so, others reported bed bugs. No grass, though. River in town to go swimming. Pets are not allowed, I think (didn't have the cat yet, so not sure). Normal albergue price.

Camping Sarria: Directly on Camino, when entering town, on the right. ~1,5km from city center/shops. Lots of shade. Has restaurant and bar, animals allowed (guy at check-in even gave some cat food to me for my newly found kitten). Animation program for kids ect., so it can be a bit louder, but not too bad if you pick a spot further away from the bar. 9€.

Portomarin: Casa rural Santa Marina has a camping. ~ 1km off the Camino and out of town, so go shopping before going there. Very quiet and relaxing place, friendly staff. Good restaurant with a view over the river and their vinyard, they make their own wine, according to the waiter. Animals allowed. 15€/person.

Arzua, Teiraboa Base Camp. Directly on Camino, ~1km before town center. Small supermarket/shop in the gas station next to it. Very nice, luxurious camping with good pool. Has bar and restaurant, too. Very pet friendly (many dogs, my cat, even someone with a rabbit on a leash!!!!). Very friendly staff.

Camping San Marcos: Had called there to make sure I get a spot because it was a long day and I was slow. Was told the reception is open until 8 pm and "See you later". Fancy website advertises pool, bar and restaurant, looked good. When I arrived there at 7:45pm, reception was closed, bar was closed, restaurant was closed, apart from the people camping there it seemed completely abandoned. Called the guy again, he claimed we hadn't spoken with each other, and that I didn't have a reservation. I would have been allowed to pitch the tent anyway and pay in the morning, but had no food with me, so continued to Santiago. Pool looked good though, enough trees for shade.

Santiago, Camping as Cancelas. Check-in open until 23:30, good if you arrive late after a long day, no hurry. Nice pitches with hedges and trees. Restaurant, bar. Friendly guy at reception. When entering Santiago, instead of turning left when the Camino leaves the national route, continue straight ahead, then to the right up the hill. Shopping center nearby. Pets allowed. Has a pool, also.
