    Cyclists

    I must admit the word "ban" does not seem to fit the spirit of the camino.

    Planning Portuguese Coastal 😄

    Already I've found the topics and pics very inspirational. I'm an active 76 yo and am planning an arrival in Santiago de Campostella on my 77th bday May 21. I'll start walking the Camino Portugues Coastal route from Póvoa de Varzim on May 6, crossing into Spain at Caminha keeping it to 15k or...
