      2. Day - Escamplero to Grado. A bit chilly in the morning, but at 11:00 the sun comes out and it's a beautiful day from then on. It's a short walk, although the first half makes me sweating. From Paladin on is it 'a walk in the park', along the...

      AK2112 reacted to ShoshTrvls's post in the thread Pilgrimage or vacation? with Like Like.
      My Camino walks are definitely my vacations. Admittedly, I'm not walking with a religious motive, but I don't think the two terms are incompatible. A "vacation," to me at least, means leaving the routines of my normal life -- work, doing...

      AK2112 replied to the thread Shoes camino primitivo.
      I did both Frances and Primitivo in trail running shoes. (Salomon Speedcross GTX) I walked in April both times. Very little asphalt on the Primitivo. No reason for trekking boots on either of these routes (IMHO). I always wear trekking socks...

      No. This is only as far as Melide, you have to add another two days to get to SdC (according to Gronze). So 13 days is the correct answer. I did it in 14 days last year, including a rest day in Logo (that I did not need).

      Getting out of Oviedo last April was not easy! I am looking forward to your posts. Buen Camino!

      Hi all! Started today from Oviedo to Escamplero. Now I know, why so many people say it's a bit of a challenge to come out of Oviedo. I got lost just once, but was rescued by a very friendly guy. A short, but beautiful walk by great weather...

      This is the correct answer.

      Can I turn this? I’ll turn this. The most dangerous place on the Camino Frances, or any other Camino, is the gap between expectation and reality. Many have fallen there. Yes there are places where the footing is a bit challenging and there are...

      AK2112 replied to the thread Different because it's shorter.
      I have done both Frances (from SJPDP) and Primitivo. Totally different in one way, but also similiar. i would not spend much time worrying about what kind of experience it will be, just put one foot in front of the other - and repeat. I am sure...

      Found him on the way, just before O Cebreiro. That's him in Santiago, and later at home: Made a poncho for his carrier from a garbage bag. Me in my giant tent-like poncho, and him with the garbage bag, looked ridiculous 🤣. Bought him a...
