    Via de la Plata Starting Weds May 9th Backpack Question

    Hello, I am starting the Via de la Plata from Sevilla next Weds May 9th. I am packing my backpack and wondering if I really need to pack a sleeping bag or not. Anyone walked it during this time of year and can tell me? Do the albergues typically provide sufficient bedding? Also if anyone...

    Starting Via de la Plata beginning of may (somewhat flexible)

    Thank you so much Barbara. That really puts my mind at ease. Since doing the Camino Frances I realize it is not necessary to overthink too much but I was a little worried about the Via de la Plata because I did not want to be too alone. It is really drawing me though so I have to do it.

    Starting Via de la Plata beginning of may (somewhat flexible)

    Thank you C cleary. I realize May is a bit late to start and would have preferred to start in march or april but things didn't work out. I have a 3 liter water bladder and I will look for a hands-free reflective umbrella!

    Hello Everyone, I am planning to start the Via de la Plata from Sevilla at the beginning of May. I fly into Madrid on April 27th and will spend several days there and then make my way to Sevilla. Is anyone else planning a start date around then? It would be nice to start off with someone. I...

    Via de La Plata from Cadiz to Muxia in Spring

    Thank you for the reply. I am thinking maybe I will just visit Cadiz and then bus to Sevilla. I like that I could decide to change course and go through portugal instead, if decided. But I do love spain and enjoy being able to speak spanish. What did you like so much about the vdp? It is...

    Let me know what you decide. I am still in the dreaming stages but think that I will start in March or April!

    Via de La Plata from Cadiz to Muxia in Spring

    Ok, maybe it is not worth it to walk from cadiz to sevilla. Maybe a better idea would be to visit cadiz and then bus it to sevilla and start there. Via de la plata sounds really amazing!

    Via de La Plata from Cadiz to Muxia in Spring

    It's just something I'm thinking about...an idea that is drawing me. Have you walked the vdlp? I think it would be interesting to walk from one coast to another and I want to visit cadiz so that is one of my reasons. I am also looking for a longer camino than the cf.
