  Off we go again on a new route for me, Camino Invierno. Not sure I’ll have much to add the already excellent details posted by @peregrina2000 and @Wendy Werneth and Nick. I’m trying to follow their suggestions but my staging and distances are...

  When you ask about country of origin, is this the country you were born in, you nationality, or where you normally live?

  I think whether you like the Valencia - Toledo part depends on what you’re looking for in a Camino. I agree that the first three or four days are brutal for the feet, asphalt all the way, through suburbs and then ag fields of rice and fruit...

  Two weeks back home and it's about time to report my Camino Sanabres. Since last March, many experienced members gave me many useful suggestions to my questions as to how to switch from Frances to Sanabres. I really appreciated and read them...

  We did the Madrid, Salvador, Primitivo last year in May/June and l carried only 600mls water and found no problems with getting more if needed. I actually carried another bottle half full but never touched it. Always stopped to refuel with OJ/...

- Donna Sch posted the thread Water availability in 🇪🇸 Camino del SALVADOR (León - Oviedo).
  
  We will be doing the Salvador late May-early June-ish so I'm just wondering if there are stretches with limited water available ie bars, tiendas, fuentes or the odd servo. And how much water do people tend to carry. We will be taking our time on...

- Donna Sch posted the thread Water requirements/availability in May in 🇪🇸 Camino de MADRID (Madrid - Sahagún).
  
  Just want to get an idea of how much people tend to carry and if there are any stretches with a lack of bars, Fuentes where we can top up. This is assuming we hit sunny weather! ETA: Note this is for the Camino Madrid.

- Donna Sch replied to the thread Drink water to keep hydrated.
  
  3% is tolerable and is mild dehydration at most and easily remedied with oral fluids. Nowhere near hospital level. The danger is when oral input is insufficient. 10% will score you a hospital admission. Maintenance for my weight is 125ml/hr and...
