    What is the one Albergue that you would say not to miss

    This may help answer your question. If I had to pick one, maybe the Albergue Xunta in Ribadiso. Buon Camino!

    Our favourite albergues on the Camino Frances

    Dear Camino family, In these dire times of home isolation and covid-19 pandemic, I thought I would turn lack of mobility into daydreaming about past (and future!) mobility, and be helpful to somebody else – who perhaps is planning their Camino Frances to celebrate the end of the pandemic! Below...

    Advice welcome: easy and short camino to take my mum for her 70th bday :)

    Thank you to all for all your kind and helpful replies! There is still a bit of time and this will allow me to do extra research. I am reassured to see that I am on the right track considering the Portugues and Ingles. I also thought about doing the last ~100 Km of the Frances, but then I think...

    Advice welcome: easy and short camino to take my mum for her 70th bday :)

    Dear pilgrim family, This year will be my mum's 70th birthday and we are tentatively planning a short camino together in September. She is reasonably fit and I have done the Frances and the Primitivo before. I expect we'll be able to walk 10-15 km/day, no more. Here are the criteria I am...

    Accommodation along the Camino Finisterre

    Hello, My partner and I completed our Camino Finisterre in October 2018. Below are the places we stayed at with a little review which may be helpeful to others: NEGREIRA: we stayed at Albergue Anjana and we liked it. There is a nice patio and garden. For food, we went to Cafe Imperial...

    Favourite albergues on Primitivo?

    I forgot to include two stops! Let me remedy that: After O Cadavo, we stopped at: *VILLAR DE CAS: it's only 15 Km from O Cadavo but a handy stop if it's pouring down, as it was for us. The albergue is called A Pocina de Muniz. Beautiful stone house, albergue run by a lovely family, recently...

    Favourite albergues on Primitivo?

    Dear fellow pilgrims, Now that I am back from my Camino Primitivo, I thought I'd answer my own question and post some thoughts on the albergues we visited along the way, in case this info comes in handy for somebody else. My partner and I stayed in these albergues in October 2018. OVIEDO: we...

    Traveling to start the Primitivo

    This is so helpful, thanks everyone! We have just found out that for the same price of a flight Rome-Madrid we can actually fly from Rome to Oviedo! Our plane lands at 8.30 pm so we should have plenty of time to get the airport shuttle into town. Can anyone give a personal recommendation for...

    Bed bugs + Spray help

    I recommend walking into a farmacia (if you still on the camino) and asking for professional advice.

    Favourite albergues on Primitivo?

    Dear fellow pilgrims, If you have walked the Primitivo, can you please share if there are any albergues that you thought were particulalry special? Personally, I prefer donativos and communal dinners to private albergues, but am keen to read your answers and take note. Thank you! ♡

    Favourite albergues on the Salvador?

    Dear fellow pilgrims, I understand that this question may have its limitations. From my research there seems to be a relatively limited numbers of albergue options on the Salvador (compared to the Frances for example), so maybe it won't come to choosing but to convenience and timing, as it...

    Ender's Salvador guide in English

    Dear fellow pilgrims, I was doing my research on guidebooks for Salvador and came across this thread. Do I understand it right if I say that: - there is no 2018 edition of Ender's guide? The latest available is the 2016 above? - the only other comprehensive resource for the Salvador is Gronze...

    Seeking advice for sleeping bag

    Hello Weiho, I did my camino frances from mid-Sept to mid-Oct last year. I did lots of research myself, and in the end I settled for this. It was just perfect for me and at a fantastic price: http://www.gapyeartravelstore.com/highlander-trekker-superlite-travel-sleeping-bag.html I will be...

    I recently attended a talk given at our local sports store on Camino del Norte

    Many thanks for this, Rondimc! I chose to reply to your comment in particular, out of the many value inputs above, because the time you walked corresponds roughly to what I have in mind for mine and my partner's. I have two specific concerns: 1. I read that facilities are scarcer on the...
