    The latest revision of Alison Ragu's guide 2011 The Camino Mozárabe or Vía de la Plata, Part A, Seville to Santiago is now available from CSJ. I ordered one this week, £5. I hope it's been fully revised considering the contributions above.

    Cycling the waymarked path on VDLP

    Hi David, Many thanks for your very helpful response. You have given me precisely the information I need to make a good decision. I’ll be on a KTM Sport with a Chain ring of 48/36/26 and Cassette of 32/28/24/21/18/16/14/12/11. I know now that this is not the ideal bike for the entire trip but...

    Cycling the waymarked path on VDLP

    Hi Annie & Ian, Thanks for your encouragement. I have decided to give it a go on the bike. My first Camino was back in 2000, before the rush, and I found friendship among all my fellow travellers, even the walkers :wink:. My greatest moment of inspiration came unexpectedly from a busload of...

    Cycling the waymarked path on VDLP

    Hi Tamtamplin, Missing the best of the scenery is exactly why I am weighting up walking or cycling. I did Frances on a touring bike with a good load and was forced onto tarmac for long stretches. I feel I may have missed all the good bits. While it was a wonderful experience, I want to do VDLP...
