    Yes we have Gronze and use this to search/select accommodation. We are also cycling, starting Bilbao.

    Questions Invierno and San Salvador

    Compered to Primitivo 1. Terrain. Wonder if its very steep decents that, if rain, can get really slippery. I have only trainers and sandals (the s not very supporting ones, meant for flat and dry really). Steep up ok! (but guess what goes up must come down as Wise Pilgrim says) 2. Heat. Open...

    Is it okay to have no plan for the first Camino? 🌙

    may I ask what route you did go? Central or coastal?

    Is it okay to have no plan for the first Camino? 🌙

    Here is the link to the forum pages on the Variante. There is also alot of information online about it. I know that the Buen Camino app has a section on the variante with a GPS map and information. I believe the Wise Pilgrim does also. There is a boat you need to take at the end of the Variante...

    current status of albergue bed availability on CDN

    Yes and try to get to the donativo in Irun early. Last year I walked the Vasco but it starts in Irun. It was my second time in Irun as I did the Norte in 2018. I was there about 45 minutes before it opened. Gronze says it opens at 4PM but i think it opened at 3 but I could easily be wrong. Even...

    LIVE from the Camino Jensjaunt on the Portuguese Coastal

    Day 10 to Baiona Today was a longer day with even some elevation gain! Good to feel like the pilgrim legs are kicking in. We did see many pilgrims following the yellow bike path all the way to Baiona, we followed Wise pilgrim and Brierley blue route to climb. Nothing like climbing up along old...

    At the beginning of the Norte the pilgrim infrastructure is somewhat lacking. Have you checked what Gronze and Wise Pilgrim have listed? https://www.gronze.com/camino-norte https://www.caminodesantiago.me/camino-guides/#camino-del-norte

    LIVE from the Camino K's Primitivo 24

    To be fair, it is exactly what I intend to do on my next Camino Primitivo (since the Salvador/Primitivo combo is one I will definitely repeat). It seems that some of the best places to stay, by many reports, are between the established stages that I stuck to in the early part of my Primitivo.

    Hello all! Problem with Wise Pilgrim app.

    Never mind! Duh - I figured it out. What does this portend for my Camino?

    Hello all! Problem with Wise Pilgrim app.

    I have been planning my upcoming Camino using the Wise Pilgrim Frances app. Unfortunately, it has stalled at Burgos and will not give me any information beyond that city. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but the problem persists. Suggestions are very welcome.

    Is it okay to have no plan for the first Camino? 🌙

    I think you have a great attitude for what you need. To be outdoors, breath, walk and hopefully meet some really nice people. I know there are well meaning people who have responded who have no experience as a pilgrim. I read what they write and I know what they say today may be so, so...

    LIVE from the Camino K's Primitivo 24

    :::chuckle::: That's a bit more limiting on the Primitivo in the early stages than on the Frances. Strongly recommend Gronze plus Wise Pilgrim or Buen Camino to see all your possibilities. The potential is that the bubble poor Kari is stuck in will dissipate soon, as the May 1 holiday ends...

    Accommodation worries

    Here are the instructions from the app. I've highlighted the template instructions. And here's a post describing how to use it that I made back in March.

    Accommodation worries

    I just tried doing this and I could not find a template. I clicked on the WhatsApp area and a blank area came up. Where in the Wise Pilgrim app did you click to get the template?

    Accommodation worries

    I made a booking today for later this month in Larrasoana in San Nickolas Albergue. I used WhatsApp in the Wise pilgrim app. There is a template and you just fill in date and name. I got a reply within 10 minutes. All done no worries.

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    Forget Booking.com and contact the Albergues direct instead. There are usually more beds available than have been allotted to B.Com. Use Buen Camino App, Gronze.com ( open in Google Chrome and it will auto translate to English), Wise Pilgrim App or whatever you choose.

    LIVE from the Camino Starting in Bilbao - a six week Camino

    Seems a good way of going about it. Similar for me when I start out week after next. Good reminder re weekends.

    LIVE from the Camino Starting in Bilbao - a six week Camino

    The way I am doing it is that I in the evening, or when I get to town, go to Gronze and Wise pilgrim and look at the towns ahead. If there is a big albergue ahead at a distance I feel is good for me, I will go for it. If it looks like there are just smaller places I will try to book. Sometimes I...
