    Spring Camino, where?

    I did not read any other responses, so sorry if redundant. You could walk the Vasco. Starts in Irun and connects to the Frances in either Burgos or Santa Domingo de Calzada.

    Route from fuenterroble de salvatierra

    Camino de Madrid Trip Report - March 2023

    I just found this thread. A very interesting read. What strikes me the most other than the rock museum which I missed is you did the entire walk in 6/7 days?

    LIVE from the Camino Starting the Invierno today - March 12, 2024

    I found this to be the most challenging day. Nice walk up in the hills along the river. Then steep decline to cross the river followed by a steep 7 km's back uphill to Chantada. Stayed in Albergue A Pousa, very nice clean modern place with washer and dryer. Lots of good options right up the...

    Just back from Málaga!

    That olive tree is probably older. I remember seeing one in the Garden of Gethsemane that is 3000 years old . At least that is what they say.
