    Valcarlos

    Transport from Astorga to Sarria

    This is an idea as well and would be good too. I don’t know if he would have the confidence to drive in Spain. The opposite side of the road for him. Def something worth considering though.

    Best way to get from Madrid to Carrion de los Condes

    Sorry my husband has just reminded me that there is a bus on Saturday but the last one is 13.30 and we arrived about 15.00. We think the taxis knew we were desperate to get to carrion and possibly made a small profit

    Comment by 'The 5 McC's' in media '12th September 2016 - On my way to Los Arcos'

    We walked this stretch in July 2016. It was very hot and very little shade. I fainted a couple of times before reaching los Arcos. Hardest days walk on the Camino. Didn’t put me off though love it.
