    Struggling with 1/2 size larger - Lone Peaks - insole recs?

    Lots of people say your feet WILL swell. Well, mine don’t. This is a very personal thing. If I went up half a size my shoes would be too big, they would then slop around and give me blisters. Do what works for YOU.

    How many pilgrims do not ask for a Compostela after their Camino?

    I only got a Compostela after my first Camino, Camino Francis. I have walked many Caminos since but have never bothered to get another one.

    Length of first day to Vila de Conde

    We walked along the river then up to Matosinhos on the first day then to Vila de Conde on day two. A nice, easy start.

    Looking for Advice on Timing to Walk Camino del Norte/Primitivo

    I walked it in July 2019 & struggled to find accommodation at times. I found I had a try to book in advance which isn’t my preferred option. I too like the heat but I wouldn’t try to do it in July again.

    Transportation from Santiago to Douro Valley

    From Porto we got a boat up the Douro then the train back. A long day trip.

    Places to stay for rest days

    I spent a few days in Caminha last year & found it a delightful & relaxing place. Recommended.

    What happened to Forum member Alexwalker?

    Welcome back Alex. I too have missed your posts. And like you my knees are now very dodgy. I will continue to Camino (slowly) and hope to meet you out there one day.

    Hilliest Camino stages?

    San Salvador. Short & hilly. Perfect. Plus it’s beautiful. ✔️

    Municipal Albergue WiFi?

    It worked for me in June-July but I had a Spanish SIM.

    Camino Madrid - accommodation, etc.

    We finished the Camino de Madrid about 3 weeks ago. No problems finding accommodation. We only saw 3 other walking peregrinos in the whole 14 days. Loved it. Make sure to stay with Ray & Rosa at Manzanares & they will give you lots of hints.

    LIVE from the Camino Salvador June 2022

    Peregrina 2000 can you please give me more information on the pension in Cabornera? This seems ideal for us but I can’t find what it’s called, where it is or contact details. We’re starting the San Salvador in a few days. Thanks, Jacki.
