    Which Camino for Less-abled or Wheelchairs?

    My daughter is in a wheelchair, cannot walk at all. We did the section from Logrono to Burgos. It was challenging but we managed. I have a Facebook page, Pushing for EDS which may be helpful.

    Xunta regulation about cloth sheets

    I walked for 30 days during April / May 2017. Partly on Norte and some on Frances. Some albergues had cotton sheets and they did not appear to be clean or recently washed. Unfortunately I did not take note of which albergues. I never received a towel. Personally I think I prefer a plain...

    Wheelchair Camino

    My daughter had just completed 250km of Camino Francais in a wheelchair with a hand cycle attachment, not motorised. I had to help her up the hills - lots of hard work for both of us.

    CF - current budget

    Hi, I walked for 10 days from SJPP in Sept 2016. I think if you can budget 25 - 30 euros per day you will be comfortable. You may find that on 20 euros per day you will be worrying about your budget and not able to be relaxed on your Camino. I will be walking again in April. The way I do...

    March 2017

    Hi, I have just returned from 2 weeks on Camino Frances. I started in SJPP with the idea of walking as far as I could. I had a flight booked out of Logrono (to Madrid) with the idea of catching a bus back. I walked further than Logrono but then decided to experience walking back so I returned...
