    Accommodation problems on the Salvador?

    Laurie, once again your support is priceless. Thank you so much and I will try all the options you have recommended. I plan to walk the Salvador to Oviedo, take a bus to Ponferrada and walk the Invierno to Santiago. This was my plan for last year but due to the Covid I had to cancel everything.

    Camino Primitivo

    Sexism in outdoor clothing

    Are you seriously debating which colours should be worn on the WAY ? I personally consider walking the caminos as a pilgrimage and attire and colours do not matter so much. Basic, simple and humble. But I also have to respect that not everybody walks with the same feeling and so enjoy the subject.

    Norte Here I come !

    Hi. I walked the Norte this June and it was a challenge. The first week was the hardest because the paths in the Basque region were quite muddy as it rained every day and you will experience a lot of uphill too, I accepted the challenge and in the end it was all worth it as this camino is one...

    Porto to Santiago - which route?

    Hello dear pilgrim. I walked the Portugues Camino from Lisbon to Santiago this September and what I am going to say is my own personal experience. From Porto I took the coastal route right up to Pontevedra and from here took the Variante Espiritual. It took me twelve days to reach Santiago...

    Coastal Route Porto - Santiago

    I have JB book and as you say, it covers just one day from Porto to Vila do Conde. But I must also add that my friend walked from Porto to Santiago on the inland route and he feels this way is more interesting than the coastal route. I guess it is up to what the individual likes best. Thanks...
