  A. You can opt out of reading any thread on the forum that you want. 😉 B. This thread is about the concept of walking vs hiking, and for many people where they are doing the activity makes a difference. People are just giving examples.

  Gosh @alexwalker why so harsh? This thread is under miscellaneous topics afterall. IMHO the discussion about walking/ hiking is very interesting and I remember we also discussed this in other threads about European trails. Great thing about...

  The walk from Ponferrada to VdB is a good, full day with a mix of scenery, in May we did it in the rain but I digress. If you stop in between, the next day you may want to go to Trabadelo via Pradela Alto, there’s a nice bar/albergue there if...

  I think about this occasionally when friends invite me for a hike, but the hiking spot is an hour or more drive away, meaning that we would spend more time in the car than on the trail. I usually decline these invitations. While I like to walk...

  My thoughts from 7 years ago post Camino. https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/sauntering-not-hiking.51205/ Don’t know if it’s helpful or not.

  You may be interested in The Templars by Dan Jones. It provides information from the origin of the Order to the death of Jacque de Molay in Paris and the subsequent hunt for the remaining Templars. Political intrigue at its best.

  I like Molineseca - its a lovely little river town at the bottom of a mountain after a particularly rocky trail. (Lots of cats, especially Siamese). Nice to stay in or pass through. Not far from Ponferrada. I dont think a day is warranted, you...
