    LIVE from the Camino Caminho Nascente, 2021 September observations

    September 2021: Well against quite a few ‘odds’ I travelled to Portugal and am now attempting to follow @jungleboy (and Wendy) on the Caminho Nascente from Tavira to Trancoso.

    Countdown has begun. Soon about to depart for the 41 hours that will get me on planes, buses and trains from small-town New Zealand to Valencia. Before I depart for the Levante I must thank all the supporters. Those who have walked in previous years and the ‘newbies’ walking in 2017. ALL your...

    Levante technology

    So I know there are lots of ‘Levante-ites’ lurking on the forum at the moment. ;) I’m on countdown now - 19 days til I arrive in Valencia. A question for the veterans: which mobile phone co did you use and what was the coverage like along the Levante? I’ve used Vodafone and Yoigo in the past...

    CPI - rough guide notes to Camino Portuguese Interior in resources

    Just to advise that I’ve now loaded my notes on the CPI (completed Oct 15) to the resource section of this site. Ivar has created a new sub-section for the CPI so as not to confuse it with other Portuguese routes. Many newbies may mistakenly assume that the CPInterior is same as the more...

    Portugal Interior Camino (Coimbra to Chaves - then Sanabres)

    I’m still inthe planing stage for the camino through the centre of Portugal called the Interior (many thanks to Amsimoes for the info quoted below on all the Portugues caminos) In Portugal we have (among others the following Caminhos): 1.

    Camino Central Portugal (Viseu to Chaves - Verin etc)

    I’m considering walking this ‘little-known’ caminho in October and was wondering if anyone has also walked the central route at this time of year. I’m expecting a fair bit of rain but would like to know if there are portions that become impassable or difficult. I usually travel with a poncho...

    Favourite Albergues on VdlP

    I’m in the throes of last minute organising for the VdlP (leaving Sevilla around the 7th Sept) and unfortunately thwarted a little due to having to work away from home. This site is my saviour! I’m interested in any recent reports of lovely (whatever that means to you) albergues people have...

    Hi all, I’m taking my unlocked iPhone 5 on my VdlP in Sept 2014 and am interested in hearing how various Spanish mobile carriers have worked out for other pilgrims over the past year. I read an older post that commented on Vodafone not having good coverage on this route but things may have...

    Staying in Seville before the VdlP (any ideas?)

    I have been trying to arrange for 3 nights accommodation in Seville from 31st May before I embark on the VdlP. With little luck so far (trying to book Hostals and small Hotels on the internet), I was wondering if anyone knows of an Habitacione (close to centre)? Any information would be much...
