    Stages from Oloron-Sainte-Marie

    It started at dinner about serving a veggie meal, and escalated from there - I think it was near the end of their stay; the albergue was packed (!!) and they were nearing their melting point. Needless to say, in the bathroom the following morning, I asked how another pilgrim had slept "Not a...

    Stages from Oloron-Sainte-Marie

    Glad you made it to those special places! There are many ways to do it. We ended up taxiing from Jaca to Santa Cruz, dropped off our bags at the fancy hotel there, and walked up the well marked trail (no road hike necessary) to the Monastery to enjoy a lovely lunch at the top, explored, returned...

    Promotion of the Camino Aragones by local government

    A very nice Camino - much lesser walked by people from the States, and plenty of services at the beginning of May 2023. We served at the albergue in Canfranc for two weeks in late May, we served 89 pilgrims from 28 countries and 6 continents. The only pilgrims from the U.S. were friends of ours...

    Starting the walk in the afternoon

    I've started 2 Caminos in the afternoon - St Jean to Orisson (came in from Lourdes) and Astorga to Murias de Rechivaldo (!!!) (came in from Madrid). I enjoyed those little stages to help me prepare for the longer days ahead.

    How many people go right to Orisson?

    I left Lourdes early, and arrived in St Jean at lunch time - Pilgrim office closed, but it was important to me to get my first stamp there, so I had a wonderful lunch and then the office opened, I got my stamp and walked to Orisson. A wonderful first day on the Camino!

    Are you on the Primitivo now?

    Gracias- just a year to go!

    Are you on the Primitivo now?

    Thank you both for your responses. My last consideration is I'll be a year older - just one more factor. I will definitely train and prepare beforehand.

    Are you on the Primitivo now?

    I'm hoping to walk the Primitivo early October, 2024 and wonder how it's been for you as you walk this time of the year, specifically: 1) have you encountered many pilgrims? 2) are most albergues open? 3) have you had to use a light sleeping bag? 4) how cold/wet has it been? 5) have you had to...

    Walking a short section of the Camino Catalán

    Wonderful to spend the evening there- special vespers all to ourselves despite the hordes during the day. Memorable pilgrim meal in the main hotel

    Walking a short section of the Camino Catalán

    My advice: don’t miss Montserrat

    Calling , texting from the CF.

    I freely admit to being a Luddite and have found that keeping my phone on airplane mode while traveling works for me. I only use the phone when I have access to Wi-Fi - which works even on airplane mode. I can take the phone off airplane mode and use it to make calls if necessary, which I did...

    Just listened to Part 2 yesterday - loved it! And, I highly recommend On Trails by Robert Moor.

    Volunteering as Hospitaleros at Arres on the Aragones Route

    Yes, no reservations but a call to find out about how many people are there and giving the hospis a heads up really helps!
