Well I know your excitement at this stage and don't let anything dampen your spirits - even some rain - I can understand how Jun felt though as that is a very solitary route and to have to brave that all on your own takes some doing!!! I did Portuguese C three years ago from Lisbon with a...

Hi Irtemio - I walked from Malaga in April through to May and had a wonderful camino - it was tough with some very long days but so enjoyed the route. Very few pilgrims along the way so when we did meet up it was with great joy - also had lovely weather until after Merida when the whole of Spain...

Many thanks and much appreciated
Thank you Carel for this - I could read most of it and got the gist of the story - I do hope that the snow will be long gone by the 14 April . This time round I am going to be more prepared for cold weather should it hit like last time I was on the VDLP.
Buen camino
Hi George - I have tried opening up this site and can get as far as "download Villanueva etc and then it says this site may close in spring - have you been able to open it recently" . Maybe I am doing something wrong will try again later - but many thanks for this info - it has all been noted in...
Thanks once again George - I have done my reservation - I certainly
Ike it's close proximity to Cathedral and to Picasso museum which I really hope to visit.
Buen camino
Hi George so enjoyed following yours and Maggie's camino last year - thus the inspiration to follow in your footsteps this year. I am glad to hear the route is well marked - dread getting lost on my own ( no one to blame for wrong directions) thank you for the info on printable maps - will...
