    Central or Espiritual Portuguese Route?

    Armenteriera has a beautiful monastery with a pilgrim blessing each evening. Very special singing from the nuns and a prayer in your language. The next day is the single best day of walking in all my walking....ever. So beautiful...the path of stone and water. Don't miss it.

    Hiking Poles - leaving them behind...

    I flew Ryan air from Barcelona to Santiago de C. I had my poles on my carry-on suitcase.(taken down to three pieces for each pole). I had unscrewed the metal tips and screwed on rubber tips. I had no problems. Maybe luck? I don't know, but did this on the advice from this Forum. Anybody else?

    Camino de Faro. Walking partner wanted 6/20/2023

    I ended up staying on the traditional Camino de Santiago routes. It was pretty; not too much asphalt. I felt the need to be able to call, and get help if needed. Thanks

    Options: what to do after arriving in Santiago

    I loved Lires. Better than Muxia and Finesterre. I stayed at LiresCa, walked town the river to the beach and enjoyed a drink at the bar there. So quiet, peaceful but not exciting.

    Buenos dias, I'm leaving Muxia this morning, back to Santiago de Compostela to go home. A great trip. I used Amare for the boat. I found the responsive and professional. They give a tour as you make your way up the river. I contacted them through email at Amare Turismo Náutico...
