  1. Bad Pilgrim

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    I love museums and Picasso but I have never visited many of them (just the Prado, which has a few Picassos thrown in of course) so I will definitely try to check them out!

    I have yet to plan for the things to see in Montserrat, so I am thankful for any info... Since I have a couple of days before I get there I have some time to look up what & when to visit, I hope... As for this afternoon, I am too busy running back and forth in my apartment doing my backpack, to...

    Yes I walked from Aguilar last year! It will be interesting to compare it with the section from Bilbao. People I met in Aguilar said accomodation was scarce between Bilbao and Aguilar. I was coming from an even more remote route so I thought there where plenty of places to stay on the Olvidado...

    So no Mercadona next to the Monastery..? Dang! 🤔 Where is the world heading? Oh well, menú sounds nice! 😀

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    I have found Wikilocs for this route and most guides say the Camino starts there (??) so that is where I am heading! I intend to stay there! Normally I rely on private lodging/hostals, because I consider my albergue heyday to be over. But I heard nice things about the albergue in Montserrat...

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    I think I have settled for Terrassa (end of) day 1! The place seems large enough to have everything I need: I am a City Pilgrim and prefer to stay in larger places/towns. So there is an albergue in Terrassa? Albergue de Peregrinos or Albergue for Anyone (groups of youngsters making noise all...

    Not drinking beer... I could be walking with a glass of wine though! I keep it classy!

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    It will be about 22 degrees C on Sunday, which sounds perfect for a long walk to, for example, Terrassa the first day! I have been training & walking where I live so I think I can pull off 30 kms (??) the first day. If it got hotter than 30 degrees, I would definitely take 3 shorter days to...

    I am not 7 feet tall, I will be rolling down the hill like a log!! This sounds ominous :eek: !

    Sounds good to me..! Even a directionally challenged mind will find his way then... 😵‍💫

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    ...hiking trails before Montserrat so that worries me (since I can't have the function where Wikiloc guides me with that beeping sound and so on). So I guess I have to concentrate in order to not get lost. Well I only have a few days before I go and I haven't done my homework on this yet...

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    Thanks, The start is at Horta, right? From what I have seen (on Wikiloc) there are so many alternative paths to walk from Barcelona to Montserrat..! It has been confusing to me, and I haven't really sat down to sort it out yet. I would like to walk it in 2 days if possible so - as I asked Rick...

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    I know I should have done my research already but... Just a short question: does the official Camino (if I follow the arrows etc) go through Ullestrell? It looks like Ullestrel is mid-way to Montserrat so it would be nice to walk 2 stages of about equal distance to Montserrat from Barcelona.

    BP on the Catalán, June-July 2024

    Hi everyone and welcome back to my channel! I take my first steps on the Camino Catalán on Sunday, from Barcelona, and I plan to go on to Puente la Reina. Then I have some unfinished business with the Olvidado (Bilbao to Aguilar de Campoo). From Aguilar de Campoo I am not sure if I should walk...

    I start from Barcelona next Saturday. This will come in handy.

    Belgian royals walking another part of the Camino

    I guess they don't want the question "What do you do for a living" at the table since it would out them... :D Or maybe they just tell it how it is if they are asked? What do I know... :oops:

    Belgian royals walking another part of the Camino

    Without having read the articles... I think it is easy for them to blend in (if they are not walking with their crowns, suits and gala dresses. High heels down to Zubiri is not advisable). I for one would never recognize them. Just thinking about the entourage; if the security staff gives them...

    42 kms gives me a back pain just thinking about it...! But it does look beautiful! Happy to hear you have nice weather!

    LIVE from the Camino Arlés in April

    I know, so many Caminos to choose from. I am waiting for @BeatriceKarjalainen 's updates to sway me towards Arles this summer as well... Were are you heading to if not to Arles, Nadine?
