    Sorry

    I've been following various threads since I joined in July and was really looking forward to my first Camino (the Levante) in January. I've got my credentials, guidebook and everything. It would have been part of a longer walk I'm doing but would have added a further spiritual dimension. I came...

    Walking the Levante in 2017?

    Matt, regarding the weather in winter, and leaving aside my earlier gung-ho spirit; it would be best to take a tent or at least an emergency bivvy. When I was in the Costa Blanca hills last February the snow came down quickly and a couple of walkers died not too far from Valencia, so it can be...

    Walking the Levante in 2017?

    Just the Amigos book Matt. I've got my iPad too. I walked through the Western Scottish Highlands in winter and kind of got addicted to the cold and damp. Bring it on.

    Walking the Levante in 2017?

    Eyup Matt. I'm setting off from Valencia on the 10th of January.
