    Leaving Leon - take a taxi to the outskirts????

    In 2011 I walked the CF or should I say I nearly walked the CF. Following advice, I took a taxi to the outskirts of Leon. The result was that I felt I hadn’t walked the Camino and the following year I returned to walk the full Camino! If you’re happy walking out of Logrono in the morning you...

    Get QR code to enter Spain

    I wasn’t suggesting breaking any laws or current rules. I was just wondering what the procedure was for someone landing in France and then walking, unchecked by any authority, into Spain. Does one have to report in anywhere or are the French checks enough? Mind you, the idea of wading ashore...

    Get QR code to enter Spain

    I know that its a very fluid situation and that rules for travel will change by the time many readers of the forum travel to walk their Camino. What is the deal for those non-EU pilgrims landing at a French airport and then walking into Spain? There will not be a record of your entry into...

    Nothing new, just a variation of what's been said already. I had plantar fasciitis 2 years ago on the Camino. I used a metal water bottle and at the end of each day's walk I used to get ice from a bar and fill the bottle with the ice. I would then roll my foot over the bottle as others have...

If you actually read my post I'm only criticising one group and not anyone else. Anyway, all I was doing was trying to...

    The joy of sharing the last 100 km

    Thank you for the welcome. Sorry about not sticking to the original subject but it had drifted a bit. As I said, my gripe is not with the from Sarria walkers. It's the deluded non walkers that I object to as they take up valuable, finite resources. I don't have it in me to watch someone jumping...

    The joy of sharing the last 100 km

    First of all let me put my cards on the table. 5 Camino Frances and a Portuguese with my wife. On the first one we followed the Brierley advise and took a bus into Burgos and regretted it ever since. We walk every step of the way and a few Finisterres and Muxias on top, all with our packs on our...
