    Prices on Gronze for rooms

    I knew you were and it seems everyone in the thread was referring to bookings and pensions/hoste;s/hotels. Just wanted to let those people looking for albergues to have the info that I have seen. Thanks

    La Virgen del Camino albergue reopens today

    Thanks David. Both of these albergues show they are open in Gronze. Another question. As many know the albergue in Ane has been an issue with pilgrims never knowing if it is open or closed or even when Gronze shows open pilgrims seem to arrive to a closed albergue. Now Gronze shows it as closed...

    Prices on Gronze for rooms

    Albergue prices are pretty close to correct in Gronze and in albergues if it is off it is just a Euro or 2.

    Camino Frances 2024 Biker/Walker Accident

    This is not sarcastic or a judgement or anything other than my own ignorance but what do you mean by the above statement. Just curious. If it is a science or math expression please tell me simply. Your audience is a man who couldn't help his kids with their math homework after the 5th grade!

    Salvadorana, Saturday/sunday

    Sorry the next post is from me as I never had heard of a Salvadorana before. Interesting. I will google it just to see what it looks like. I have my compostelas, the one from Muxia and Finesterre and one year I went to that museum with some other pilgrims (is it in Sahagun) and got that half way...

    Pilgrim House Meet & Eat for pilgrims finishing the Camino!

    I have been to Pilgrim House twice and will come again this year. I do not remember who I met. Last year it was a really nice woman and then a couple came in who had just waked also with a man. I don't know if that was you but the 4 of us had a nice conversation in the last room. At least I...

    Too Many Qs! Credencial/sleeping bag/training/albergues

    Of course you have multitudes of Spanish speakers wherever you go. When you have more time to walk you should think about walking a less traveled Camino like the Aragonés, Vasco or VDLP as examples. I have walked all three (of course there are others) where I could count on 1 hand the number of...

    Options for cell service on Camino Norte

    I second why @Mananath said. https://tiendas.vodafone.es/tiendas/guipuzcoa/san-sebastian They have excellent and cheap prepaid plans. I always use them as I walk long Caminos and always have to recharge. Super easy to do it online. They send you a text message and remember you need to recharge...

    camino portugues: coastal or central? (first timer!)

    Before you start your camino you should speak to your doctor about your medical issues. WIll you be carrying a rucksack or are you going to ship it forward. You will have more flexibility on how far you want to walk and where you want to sleep if you carry your things. But speak to your doctor...

    How to decide how long to walk for

    Ask 10 people and you will get 15 answers. Take the maximum amount of vacation time you can. Start to walk and just see what happens. If you hate it you are already in Spain and you can take a vacation. It is Spain and there is lots to see and do.

    Buying walking poles in Santiago or Muxia

    Ivar and Pilgrim House are both excellent sources. If you are staying in an albergue I bet the albergue will have some too.

    Paving, dirt, gravel, or...?

    I have walked 8 caminos and over 8000k. I have never had to worry at all about my Cascadias holding up. In fact in 2015 I walked from Le Puy to Santiago. It is about 1400k. The only thing that really wore down were the insoles. I am walking my morning walks with the Cascadias I wore last year. I...
