    Salvador, September/October 2017

    OK so i've spent a couple of days digesting all the posts on this sub-forum and as I have a couple of months (September and October) in which to walk am considering instead of walking SJPP to SdC all the way on the Frances getting to Leon and taking the Salvador then the Primitivo. It's all the...

    WildPlace - Camino Frances Sept 2017

    Popping my plans on the calendar... Well, I've booked my flights from the UK to Biarritz for the 3rd September and enquired with Express Bourricot about transport from Biarritz airport to SJPP - hopefully by then there will be more people to share the ride (and cost!) with. I'll overnight in...

    All quiet at Valcarlos

    woke up in SJPP this morning to pouring rain! Happily by the time we were ready to leave it had stopped. We enjoyed the walk to Valcarlos - well maybe not so much that last very steep uphill to the albergue! As soon as we reached the door the rain started again - so we felt very lucky! We are...

    Casa Màgica, Villatuerta

    What a fabulous albergue this is! I feel very lucky to be staying here tonight, the owner is very friendly and helpful, the building wonderfully old (medieval) and full of character and there are even hammocks to relax in on the terrace - I wish I could stay for the week!
