    Camí Català from Barcelona to Monserrat

    So I did the camino from Barcelona to Finisterra this summer. Unbelievable experiencia Met only 4 other pilgrims before Logroño. The solitude was a great contrast to the Frances which followed. A wonderful off-duty Dutch pilgrim (Andrice?) met me in Zaragoza and bought me beer... I wonder if...

    Camí Català from Barcelona to Monserrat

    I'll give some more detailed info once back. It's a great experience, pretty solitary, in contrast to the social experience of the Frances. Also surprisingly well marked overall. Brush up on your Spanish to get the most out of it. The basics go a long way!

    Camí Català from Barcelona to Monserrat

    I met cyclists cycling from Barcelona to Montserrat and back in a day. There are marked routes with red and white stripes (?) which might be more suited for cyclists. Currently in Boadilla, making strong progress towards Santiago :v

    Camí Català from Barcelona to Monserrat

    Tough walk to and from Montserrat. Beware the yellow arrows that lead back UP the mountain when going to Igualada! Good albergues in Igualada, Cervera, Castellnou and currently El Palau d'Anglosela. Bon Camí!

    Camí Català from Barcelona to Monserrat

    Arrived in Sant Cugat after a tough walk (for me) in the sun. The way was marked but I might have missed one and ended up on the B road to Cerdanyola. Luckily took a left turn towards a restaurant and managed it.

    Albergues Along the San Juame

    Thanks for your replies. Useful looking links, I'll have a browse. Peregrina2000, I'm planning on going to the Primavera sound festival in Barcelona which finishes 31st of May. So I'll probably leave a few days after that. Nothing set in stone. And yeah, I like the sound of this scenic...

    Albergues Along the San Juame

    Hi folks, Could anyone provide a list of towns with (or more usefully without) albergues along the cami sant juame. I like the idea of doing some couchsurfing (or camping :p) if there isn't an albergue for a stretch. I understand the accomodation is cheap enough. But a list of pilgrim...
