    Recent thoughts on walking in September during Covid

    So my thoughts having just reached Santiago today after 2 weeks on the Norte: by the sound of it you seem to be well aware of where the risks are and how to avoid them. It sounds like you are not planning to stay much in albergues (although they are implementing quite strict measures I think...

    LIVE from the Camino Advice on Norte now - Ribadeo to Santiago

    An update - entering into Galicia in the Norte and suddenly things have got quite busy- plenty of people around (at some points I would almost say crowded, so I can only imagine what it is like in a normal year!). I guess also there are fewer alternative routes here compared to the Asturian...

    Should I pack my kindle?

    Hi - I have read all about the equipment packing lists and figure I have pretty much got everything covered but I still have one question about whether I will have time/need for reading. I'm planning to walk the Norte route solo by the coast, starting from Oviedo, in August, staying in casa...
