    Save the Camino

    It seems that it will be left to us, the people who live on the Camino to constantly try and clear up the mess on OUR doorstep.

    Graffiti!

    John Briely Guide Inaccurate location for Pension The Way.

    We have now been told and shown quite a few times that the John Brierly Guide is showing the location of Pension The Way in Brea to be in Cruce de Empalme, and pilgrims are walking at least 2 km beyond where we are really located. We have contacted the guide to get them to rectify this mistake...
