    Valcarlos Accommodation

    The above info is the same as I have. I stayed there in October 23 and I was the only one staying on that particular day. It was difficult to find and a woman walked me through a parking area to a staircase that led to door of albergue. Also, it didn't look to be anywhere else available at the...

    How to book my own lodging - what sites to use

    I found the booking.com site worked well. Easy to track what days I had booked ahead. I used Gronze also but sometimes I didn't see a reply until later when I could access my email.

    Toronto Pilgrim Pub Nights

    I'm a couple of hours from Toronto. I may be able to get there in February. It would be great to get together with fellow pilgrims. I just completed my first camino in November.

    Looking for recommendations for lodging only.

    I'm on the Camino Frances now. I have used Booking.com during most of the journey. There is a good selection of places to stay. Albergues are all better than I had expected and most of the singles rooms that I occasionally book are a good price. Easy to do yourself and save a few $

    Arriving in SJPP and beginning walk same day

    Arriving in SJPP and beginning walk same day

    There's so much helpful information here but I can't find anything to do with my issue. I have prebooked SJPP to Pamplona. I was planning on my first day to stop in Roncesvalles but now I think it would be wiser to split that into 2 days. I can cancel my stay in SJPP the first day and thought if...

    First time

    I am preparing for my first camino in October. I was fitted at a sports store with an Osprey 36, women's fit and I am close to same height as you. Mine is a size small. I have been walking several times with it and it's very comfortable carrying about 5.5 kgs.

    October 6 start 2023

    I originally planned on May 2024 for my camino. I've been reading up so much about the Camino on this forum that I just changed my date because I don't want to wait to go. I haven't booked my plane tickets yet but hope to start on October 6th and return on November 13th. Flying into Paris...
