    Urdos to Somport Advice

    It is a long haul up to the Somport Pass but quite manageable - I have walked it twice but it is probably more demanding than the St Jean Orisson stretch. I have walked up to Somport once following the path and then once along the road, which is easier in my opinion and also scenically...

    RENFE April 2024

    I am waiting for the Madrid- Leon April timetable to appear. Renfe tells me that they are awaiting 'marching orders' of the trains on some routes - technical and safety documentation without out which they cannot circulate. They have to be granted to them by the traffic regulator and Railway...

    South Africa - Cape Camino

    I quite agree. Here in South Africa there are numerous 'Camino's on offer. Its a good selling point, but none of them remotely resemble the Camino.

    Getting from Madrid Airport to Leon

    thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful response. I do appreciate. Sadly, this is my last Camino as it is just too expensive from South Africa with our poor exchange rate.

    Backpack Pick

    Has anyone used a 40L Osprey Farpoint backpack on the Camino? I bought one a year or two ago, but have never used it . I have offered to lend it to a friend, but wonder if its really suitable for the Camino. I would appreciate some comments.

    I am getting a bit lost with Cercanias Combinado. Can it be booked on line or do I get it at Madrid airport T4? I lam not familiar with the Cercanias. Also, can one apply for the Tarjeta Dorada on line?

    Getting from Madrid Airport to Leon

    Thank you for all that information. Does the Cercanias rail take you directly to Charmartin or do you need to change lines at any stage?

    Getting from Madrid Airport to Leon

    Has anyone had any experience of getting to Leon from the airport? Rome2Rio seems to make it very complicated - either the train, which means we have a 5 hour wait to catch it or a weird combination of train and bus, which is 2 hours longer. Is it too early to get accurate information - the...

    Sharing Wise Pilgrim app

    Wise Pilgrim - I am mystified because I downloaded your Camino Frances app and was not asked to pay anything? I am more than happy to pay for it because I have used your apps for 3 other Caminos, and always recommend them, but it just downloaded immediately

    Mansilla de la Mulas to León: why bother?

    I quite agree with you. I had caught the bus on an earlier Camino and then walked into Leon the next year. I really enjoyed the whole walk from Sahagun to Leon. I am so pleased that I did it and would do it again without hesitation.
