    LIVE from the Camino @Yoga Girl on the Invierno!

    Day 9: Silleda to Ponte Ulla 23 km (14 miles) So glad to have flexibility and options to split stages! Feeling great, meeting more pilgrims from the vía de la plata, and also a few who did the Invierno, like Gregorio and Julia from Islas Canarias, and William from Belgium. Tracked video...

    LIVE from the Camino @Yoga Girl on the Invierno!

    Day 8 exploring Silleda. I thought I’d try to make it to Bandiera, but that would have been another 9 km to walk. I was getting tired so decided to stop for the day. Silleda is a nice place to hang your hat on the Camino Sanabres. The Gran Albergue is also known as Bluu Hostal, a trendy boutique...

    Day 8: Lalin to Silleda 19 km (12 miles) Tracked video: https://www.relive.cc/view/u3565790155 The pilgrim statue was a perfect sendoff for my 8th day of walking. The walk leaving Lalin is along a beautiful river walk with bridges, mill houses, picnic areas and locals enjoying nature. Today I...

    Great vibe in Lalin. Lalin Centro was probably the best albergue I’ve been to. Clean, great location, well equipped kitchen and friendly owners. Cost just €10. It was my first bunk bed on the Invierno! Well, now it’s VdlP Sanabres and I’m not the only pilgrim! 😍 A few photos:

    Day 7: Rodeiro to Lalin 24 km (14.7 miles) Video of tracked walk: https://www.relive.cc/view/u3565790803 It’s election season so there are lots of posters of politicians plastered everywhere. And vans that go around town with speaker rallying for the candidates. It’s noise pollution to me...

    Day 6 Chantada to Rodeiro, 25 km https://www.relive.cc/view/u3558435655 It was another long, but beautiful walk through farms, windmills and up to Alto de Faro. On my way out of Chantada, I stopped at a café that hadn’t had a pilgrim customer for a long time. The place had a sello, but the ink...

    Day 5 Part 2 Monforte to Chantada Tracked hike video: https://www.relive.cc/view/u3558438307 I had a spring in my step after getting that ride. Then I saw the 100 KM marker! The Wise Pilgrim App showed a different distance to Santiago (112km). Whatever, pilgrims can’t resist a good photo op...

    Yes! I stopped in Belesar for a much needed meal. I would have loved to spend a night there but no accommodations. That place was so beautiful!

    Maybe that’s why they have the Nespresso pods now. I love those machines!

    Day 5: Monforte to Chantada (36 km) Part 1: This is the day that I captured the sheep herding scenario and met that sweet 77-year-young farmer lady- you might have seen the videos on my page. This was a long stage, and it was the hottest day yet. I zipped the legs off my pants around 11 am and...

    Charrito, that’s awesome! More Caminos than anyone?! 👏🏻 My experience when I walked into Centro Social wasn’t great. My vibe was to find another place so I’m glad I went to Bar Mar instead. Very welcoming and friendly people. Manuel gave me a nice Camino Invierno t-shirt. Gran Tortuga was...

    Day 4: A Rua to Monforte de Lemos vía train. Unfortunately, an illness had me re-adjust my original plan of walking to Quiroga. After visiting Asún and a pharmacist in A Rua, I had to take a day to recover. I decided to take Renfe to Monforte de Lemos and was so glad to arrive early (11:15) and...

    Day 3 Camino Invierno: O Barco to A Rua Thankfully it was a shorter day! 1 very colorful pilgrim spotted and he’s walked caminos 58 different times. Casa do Solaina is closed but I met the owner and her mum. I stayed at Hostal Niza - €25 private full bath. Here is the tracked video...

    Day 2 Camino Invierno. Las Médulas to O Barco de Valdeorras. 30 km. The walk leaving Las Médulas was pretty. There were light showers and sunshine. 2nd morning in a row with a rainbow! Then, a hilly climb with grand views up and down to Puente de Domingo Flórez which has a churrería. I earned...

    Starting 17 May for 10 or 11 day Camino

    I am using the Invierno guide PDF for the suggested 10 day itinerary, and might stick with that. Thank you @peregrina2000! The advice I sought I now can offer to those who don’t like asphalt / road walking and need an assist at the end of the day. Day 1: The walk from Ponferrada to Castillo de...

    Tracked walk video are now available so you can see the actual route and where photos were Captured. Part 1 I got as far as Borrenes and thought I would end the day there: https://www.relive.cc/view/u3550191529 It looked like the hotel across the street from bar was nice for €25. After a beer, I...

    LIVE from the Camino @Yoga Girl on the Invierno!

    Friday, May 17, 2019 A quiet, challenging at times, but beautiful walk through a variety of landscapes. I started walking alongside the gorgeous River Sil, then continued through hamlets, vineyards, cherry orchards, a ghost town, quarry, castle, gnarled trees, well-manicured neighborhoods...

    Starting 17 May for 10 or 11 day Camino

    I’m excited to be starting the Invierno in a week. I wish I had 16 days, but unfortunately I only have 10 or 11 days to walk. I start 17 May in Ponferrada and pre-booked Pensione Fonseca in Santiago for 2 nights starting 27 May. I could cancel the 1st night to allow another stage. I usually...
