    Could you be a Hospitable Hermit?

    I shall arrive there in a few days. Just out of curiosity: what’s the hostal’s name and how much did it cost? I understand I’m arriving too early to appreciate the albergue?

    walking from Toledo to Zamora

    Dear fellow pilgrims, any ideas of an alternative low budget place to sleep in Toro?

    The new official last part of the Camino del Norte

    I walked it last year. Just what I was waiting for. Very calm, you're walking through the woods and join the French Road (Highway to be more precise) at the point of the airport. It you stay in Boimorto, it's a wonderful option for the last day(s). When this loud river from the French Way...

    Accommodation in Madrid

    I've once slept at the Korean albergue. Very nice, but I'm not sure whether you'll be able to book it last minute. http://cachinyeon.wixsite.com/madrid

    My plan for August/September

    Actually, I liked CdM in its totality. You have very nice Villalón de Campos and Grajal de Campos. And the landscapes are also worth seeing, though surely not spectacular. I would rather skip the part between Sahagun and Leon. But, of course, you'll choose what's right for and it will be the...

    Best Print Guide?

    If you're reading German, French or Spanish, the best is the one by Cordula Rabe of the German edition Rother. Very nice maps that would help you find alternative ways in case of any difficulties, adresses, telephones and quite a lot of cultural and historic background. And the size that just...

    3rd time on Camino. . .struggling to decide. . .

    Frankly, I've got mixed feelings. Probably, because I had such a great expectations and for the first (and for a long time the only) time I could afford nearly a month, so it was supposed to be THE camino for me. What I've found great were of course the views and the camino in itself. On the...

    3rd time on Camino. . .struggling to decide. . .

    Normally I should start the early September, but I have only about 2 weeks so I will get to Toledo at most.

    3rd time on Camino. . .struggling to decide. . .

    Have You thought of Levante or Sureste? I'm starting this year Levante and especially the central part seems to be very promising. You're passing through La Mancha crossing Quijote routes, Toledo (!) and than the land of Isabel Catolica in Castilla with fabulous sights and castels. Then you can...

    Starting in Valencia(few questions)

    It depends on what you're looking for. I haven't done the connection between Granja and Frances (Benavente), but I know both Frances and Sanabres (Ourense). Surely you'll find way more pilgrims if you choose the Benavente/Frances option. There will be a lot of picturesque villages and of course...
