    Camino de San Salvador

    ...and, with one exception, did not miss an arrow. (And I share your same trait.) I met 4 pilgrims total. Mostly good weather plus rain, which made the rocky stretches slippery. The month of May might still be cold; maybe even snowy. The CF has been wet and cold — but it is early April. Buen camino!

    Looking for San Salvador travel companions in Leon from April 29 to May 2, 2024

    ...in order to start the Mountain route early in the day, then stopping at both Poladura and Pajares before Benduenos. We'll leave Leon on 25th April. A 27km first day seems a bit much, and then a short 10km between Cabanillas and La Robla seems very short. We can hopefully let you know how we...

    Albergues on San Salvador

    When I walked last summer, there were no open albergues in Mieres. I walked a few km beyond to El Rollu. There was a nice albergue there.

    Albergues on San Salvador

    I'm leaving Leon on the 25th April. I've 20days in total to walk The Salvador and Primitivo. I've seen how beautiful the Mountains are in many videos. I've listened to pilgrims talking about certain Albergues. My current idea is Cabinillas 17km (all rough estimates) Buiza 23km (eating during the...

    ...pilgrims. The Salvador is by no means as busy with pilgrims as the Frances, or even the Primitivo, but there were a lot more pilgrims than the Madrid and it wasn't too hard to encounter other pilgrims if you wanted to. You could also consider adding your April start date in Leon to this thread.

    Looking for San Salvador travel companions in Leon from April 29 to May 2, 2024

    I will be your front runner ;) I arrive to Leon (from Madrid Airport) on 10th April walking San Salvador for the first time, and continue from Oviedo via Camino Primitivo to Santiago - which I walked last year. You can look forward to a fantastic camino - I wish you buen camino and good luck.

    When is the snow gone on the San Salvador?

    ...out there. While Aemet will provide you with what has happened in the past we are into a period of rapid climate change. I've walked in the Picos de Europa in April and I've been denied the same route in June. We can all plan and all hope but next week is the best prediction you are going to get

    When is the snow gone on the San Salvador?

    The San Salvador in February, 2020 (3rd week to be exact) was completley dry and snow-free. Evening temps near freezing and morning frost on trails. Beautiful, solitary walk with albergues open and available. Winters overall have been warmer and drier these past few years.
