    New albergue in A Amarela, 2 km after Corcubión

    Hi all, This January, I've walked to Fisterra and Muxía, and I'd like to share my discovery of a wonderful and very conveniently located brand-new albergue. It's particularly convenient, in my view, because it's located right on the Camino, 2 km after Corcubión, where the municipal albergue is...

    Camiño de Inverno wooden signs

    I came across quite a lot of these, and I wonder who made them? I was, of course, very glad to see every arrow and every mojón and very appreciative of the people who did the way-marking, but these wooden signs felt somewhat special, perhaps because it was much easier to imagine them being...

    Accommodations on the Invierno in midwinter

    Hi all, I'm planning to go on the Camino de Invierno this winter (yay!!:)), starting from León on December 25 and turning south in Ponferrada on December 29. I'm a bit concerned about accommodations along the way - obviously, there are less albergues than on the Camino Frances, for example...

    Looking for a good hiking map of Île-de-France

    Hi, I'm starting from Paris in late May to walk the Via Turonensis as far as Chartres (for now!), and am in search of a good hiking map :) I have the Lepere guide and Google Maps, but my intended route is slightly different from the one suggested by the guide, and the maps in the book are...

    Camino in winter: which route is warmer?

    Hi everyone, My friend and I are thinking about going the Camino, but here's one serious limitation: we work together, and getting a vacation at the same time is very problematic. However, here in Russia we have long NY/Christmas holidays, so we might make use of it. We were thinking about...
