    Albergues advice in general?

    The private albergue “Ninho” in Rubiães was incredible when I stayed there back in 2018. I often think about re-walking the Portuguese Central Route and staying there again. Look them up on Google Maps and call ahead, it’s not very big.

    Best towns for an extra day? Porto-Santiago

    Pontevedra hands down. You will love it. 👣

    Bus route besides alsa?

    I second @AnneMarie1’s comment around googling bus schedules. Search: “<name of town> autobuses horarios” As a last resort, use BlaBlaCar or Uber. 👣

    Packing list review - Camino del Norte/Primitivo in June

    This list looks great. The one thing I’d think about carefully is how much water you bring with you. A 3L reservoir sounds like a lot to me, but then again my experience has been that I “fill up” at water fountains, stations, bars and the like if and when I need to. I never had a problem on the...

    Rhode Island Pilgrims

    Thank you, @TaijiPilgrim! I’ll be checking out the website for sure. I won’t be able to make it out today but I appreciate you replying so quickly. 👣

    Muxia first or Fisterra?

    I ended up walking the full 30+km from Finisterre to Muxía in one day and in hindsight, I regret not staying in Lires and enjoying the beach there. What a relief that would have been for my sore, tired feet having walked for three weeks prior. 👣

    Muxia first or Fisterra?

    100%. This is an excellent way of putting it.

    Rhode Island Pilgrims

    How neat! I just moved back to New England in 2021 (I was born and grew up here) and just found this thread. I’m living in Fall River now and gearing up to begin another Camino next month. This will be my second trip, the first was in 2018. To any New England-based pilgrims, I’d love to...

    Where to next? Favourite caminos

    Rita, question for you. I thought I had my route more or less decided, which was to complete the Sanabrés from Ourense to SDC over the course of six walking days. But I’m noticing here (and on some other websites I follow) that most people tend to complete this section in 4-5 days. From your...

    Where to next? Favourite caminos

    I’ll be walking the Sanabrés and specifically from Ourense to Santiago and onto Muxía in June of this year. I’m SO excited and your description of the route and pictures have made me even more excited to start. This will be my second trip (my first was in 2018 beginning in Porto and ending in...

    Camino del Norte or Camino Primitivo?

    Hi, @peregrino_tom! Thank you for your insight. It's great to hear of different alternatives. So far, I'm loving the possibility of combining the Camino San Salvador and the Camino Primitivo into a longer, more challenging journey. The other option would be the Camino del Norte and later...

    Camino del Norte or Camino Primitivo?

    Hi, Pilgrims! Thank you for the helpful information. I only have 18 full walking days, so unfortunately the full Camino del Norte is not a possibility right now. For this reason I'm leaning toward the Camino Primitivo, but the coast and ocean are enticing. Thank you again for the comparison of...

    Camino del Norte or Camino Primitivo?

    Hello, Pilgrims, It's that time of year again and I'm back to deciding which Camino I'll walk this year. Last year I walked my first Camino (Porto-Santiago-Fisterra-Muxía) in September, and this year I'm considering the Camino del Norte OR the Camino Primitivo in August. I found the Portugués...

    Recommendations for Porto-Santiago-Finisterre

    Hi, All, I have another question -- has anyone walked the Lighthouse Way (Camino dos Faros) from Finisterre to Ponteceso? It's an unofficial route by the looks of it. I read about it here, although I will be doing the Camino alone without the guidance and support of an on-site service like...

    Recommendations for Porto-Santiago-Finisterre

    Hi, Anamya, Thank you so much for the invaluable information. For a first timer like myself, this is an incredible resource (as a fellow pilgrim, Elle, mentioned earlier.) I think I'm going to take your advice and begin in Porto. I'll be staying with my family in Lisbon and taking the earliest...

    Recommendations for Porto-Santiago-Finisterre

    Hi, Fellow Pilgrims! I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to embark on this journey. Walking the Camino has been a goal of mine since I first learned about it in 2010 and I'll be walking the Porto-Santiago-Finisterre route in September 2018. I have some questions for veterans: 1. My...
