    Camino de Madrid

    Valsain may not have food avail. However hospitalera was an angel.

    Camino de Madrid

    A mix is always good, but I've been on the meseta three times now on three different caminos and I've always found something to enjoy in the experience

    What should I do about calluses?

    All good solid advice, but I also carry Dr. Scholl's callus holes for a little bit of extra comfort while I'm walking. Don't always use them but if something acts up it can provide some relief. Not a cure but an aid.

    LIVE from the Camino unfinished business on the Camino de Madrid

    Did the Madrid in June 2022. Skipped the walk out of Valladolid and caught a cab to Simencas. Glad we did. At the albergue in Puente Duero, the hospitalero really emphasized to enjoy the small towns along the way from Valladolid. My blog entry for the day: Simancas to Peñaflor de Hornija

    LIVE from the Camino Camino Madrid - Starting September 2023

    Walked the Camino Madrid in 2022 with my partner. We also started in Madrid, and although very urban, we did enjoy the walk out of the city. Lots of countryside and farmland ahead of you. Enjoy the Sierras for the decline and the descent. We chose not to walk all the way to Segovia and stop...

    Sahagun or Valladolid

    In Segovia my partner and I had an outstanding tour of the Jewish quarter. And we visited the cathedral. In Valladolid we went to the previously mentioned museum and we toured the House of Cervantes, author of Don Quixote. Lol in a perfect world, you'd have a day to spend in each

    Sahagun or Valladolid

    Either Valladolid or Segovia are both excellent choices. Took rest days in both places on my Camino Madrid.

    Simancas or Valladolid

    In Valladolid My partner and I visited the modern art museum in a refurbished old Abbey, and we also spent the morning walking around the home of Cervantes, author of Don Quixote

    Marking of the Camino Madrid

    Just to offer contrary opinion, I used all trails pretty consistently. Although true that it is marked in a lot of places I would sometimes find the occasional screwball turn and being in the mid-thirties centigrade for temperature I was not in the mood to get lost or wonder if I was on the track.

    Accommodation at Start of Camino de Madrid.

    My partner and I use booking.com to get a room so that we can have a good night's sleep. Unfortunately our room was on the back side of plaza de espana. Close to the start point, but noisy all night long lol.

    Flights Booked

    https://caminomadrid2022.blogspot.com/?m=1 Just did it last year with my partner. We absolutely enjoyed it. Very lightly traveled for sure. Might get some useful info out of my blog.
