    Tarragona to Llieda

    We want to walk the Cami Sant Jaume next spring from Tarragona to Llieda. I can find only the most basic of information about it on line. Can anyone suggest a comprehensive guide with stages, accommodations and terrain?

    In praise of Motel Truckstops on the Camino

    I beg to differ ... we stayed at Hotel Asturius just last week, not because we wanted to but we had to ... couldn't find anything else at the time. We thought it was way overpriced for what we got. I will admit that the restaurant was good but to compare it to a highly rated restaurant ... no...

    LIVE from the Camino Seville start tomorrow - April 8, 2022!

    We are here as well, at Triana Hostel, and starting out at about 7:00 in the morning. We could be at the end of Triana bridge at that time if you want to walk together. Plan is to take River Route to Santiponce. How will we know you?

    LIVE from the Camino Started March 4 (2022) from Seville

    Is there no other place to stay in Embalse de Alcantara? Or, is the albergue the only option? What about the possibility of camping there?

    Looking for "Guinea Pigs"

    I’ll give it a try. I will be walking the Via de la Plata this spring, Seville to Astorga and then, Viana to Burgos on the Camino Frances. Two months and about 500 miles in all, covering a great deal of the country.

    LIVE from the Camino Started March 4 (2022) from Seville

    Arriving Seville on April 5 for two months ... VDLP to Astorga, then Camino Frances from Viana to Burgos. We have a 7hr layover in Lisbon. Any tips on purchasing a SIM card, preferably at Lisbon airport. Will a SIM card purchased in Lisbon work in Spain?

    Advice: should we attempt SJPP to Roncesvalles?

    Best to spend the night in Orisson, then on to Roncesvalles the next day. But, good luck getting a reservation. Communication with the albergue there can be challenging and it's a popular place.

    Help me pick my pack! :)

    We walked the CF from St Jean to Santiago in 2019. My buddy carried a Trader Joe's grocery bag ($ 1.99) wrapped in a sarong which doubled as a tumpline. I don't understand why everyone insists on overthinking this. This is nothing to stress about. The Camino is nothing more than a long series of...

    Visiting Rota Vicentina September 2021 - Some General Questions

    My wife and I walked the Rota from Sagres to Sines in September, 2019 ... fabulous weather. I walked in cross trainers with a 14# pack. I wouldn't have wanted boots but my shoes kept filling with sand. A good quality sandal might have been a better choice. I used poles and I was glad I did...
