    Starting Mozarabe in Malaga 4/2024

    I'm going to leave a note here for posterity, in case someone comes to this thread looking for answers. Right now, credentials can be bought in the Malaga cathedral's museum gift shop. It's a little hard to find the entrance on your own, so it's probably best to find an employee and ask...

    Weather!

    Disclaimer: I am not a meteorologist. But I live in Malaga, and my take is that you don't need to worry about it. Andalucia gets very little rain; so when a storm comes through, it feels like the apocalypse. But all that rainwater runs off pretty quickly. So, given that we're not expecting...

    Accommodation from Malaga

    I started the Mozarabe on... I want to say March 3rd last year. All of the albergues listed on Gronze were open. Like @Flog said, they're unstaffed, more like a "call the police station or town hall the day before and let them know you're coming" sort of situation. Edit: albergues listed on...

    Starting Mozarabe in Malaga 4/2024

    @jpflavin1 I live in Malaga, ask me anything. Credencial: the cathedral bookstore sells them. It's built into the south side of the cathedral, small door that's easy to miss. But, their working hours are pretty narrow, like 10:00-14:00 or something like that.

    Current resources for the Camino Mozårabe

    When I was in Villaharta this year, I ran into a couple that had been driven back from the halfway point by cab. They said the driver was a nice guy and pretty flexible, so this could be arranged with him over the phone. I don't know the specifics though. NOW YOU TELL ME?! 😉

    Planning to Walk the Camino Mozárabe de Málaga: Questions and Concerns

    I was there last spring. The walk out of Malaga isn't unpleasant, but definitely not thrilling. But if you're "distance-challenged", then the bus might be worth considering. It took me and my wife two hours to walk Malaga - Junta de los Caminos, but then ALMOST FIVE HOURS to climb up to...

    New (2017) Branch of Mozárabe -- Through Trujillo - Detailed update in 2023

    Wow, that must have been hard for you. I was on the Mozarabe around the same time, maybe even earlier. I live in Malaga, and even then it was unbearably hot for me at times.

    Suitable app?

    I walked out of Malaga this spring. I was impressed with how well the trail was marked, considering it's such an uncommon route. Gronze.com was my main reference, along with Sara Dhooma's vlog. (She documented the albergues pretty well, and Gronze's information is patchy up to Baena.) As for...

    Sellos on Mozarabe

    Also, bear in mind that you don't need a Camino-specific stamp. An official business stamp, police station stamp, etc. works too. In Spain, many institutions that do "official business" of any sort will have a stamp with said institution's key information - like address, phone number, that...
