    Walking the Camino Mozarabe in October.

    It’s fantastic between Granada and Córdoba. Mainly olive groves, well marked. Small hotels in most places if albergues shut. You will have the way to yourself almost entirely

    Need advice - female solo ok on Mozarabe in May?

    I’m on my way home today after 7 days on the Mozarabe, Granada-Cordoba and can only recommend it very highly. I met two walkers in seven days, a handful of cyclists and quite a few jolly olive farmers buy you’re on your own almost entirely. Stayed in the key villages for between €20/35 a night...

    luggage transfer

    Can anyone recommend a company that does this for the stages between Granada and Cordoba? The travel company Caminoways seem to offer it as a service but I can't find any firm on the web that provides it.

    Camino Morazbe Cordoba-Merida in a few days

    Walked for three days north from Cordoba. I was the sole guest every place I stayed and I met nobody en route. Not one person. But the food was good, the accommodation good to excellent and it was all very pleasant and sunny.

    Camino Morazbe Cordoba-Merida in a few days

    Can anyone give me any indication, in general, of how wet or otherwise I will find the trail next week? Weather seems to be 50/60 degrees or so. Just planning a few days from Cordoba. Can anyone recommend a guidebook? Also, any good hotel recommendations gratefully received.

    What does the camino mean to you?

    The level of pomposity in some of these replies is staggering. It’s a pilgrimage for some. It’s a holiday for many more. It can be both for people. The fact people deplore ‘tourists’ or ‘holidaymakers’ is ridiculous. As long as people behave nicely, surely it’s for everyone? Too many...

    Tui to santiago

    Very well signed. Albergues and small hotels en route. We did it in 5 days with a 15-year-old. Saw school parties doing the same so it’s not ferocious.

    Camino Portuguese - Starting in 2 Weeks

    We have just done the Central route. Plenty of pilgrims but never too crowded. Lots of charming villages. Loads of places to eat. Rural unless you hit towns. Highly recommended

    O Porrino

    Does anyone know this little town on the Camino Portugues? We are staying in the Albergue Camino Portugues. Does anyone know if you need sleeping bags or do they provide blankets?

    Transportation from Santiago to Fisterra/Muxia

    There is a good and cheap bus service which goes several times a day. Allow plus two hours to get there from main Santiago bus station. Lots of nice places to eat in Finisterre itself and it’s around 2mls further walk to the lighthouse. There is a taxi rank in centre of Finisterre which can...

    Newbie with questions for the French Way

    There is a company - Macs adventures? - that delivers bikes for the Meseta area if you need to knock off miles during an apparently less interesting section. You then hand them back at a certain point. Met some time-pressed Australians doing this in September. We did the Napoleon route April...
