    Winter Camino Francés video (arrived January 6th, 2021)

    Due to tech problems with my laptop, I recently lost all of my 2017 CF photos. I also walked in winter, arriving in Santiago on NYE. Your film brought back so many lost memories. Thanks so much for sharing.

    Camino August 2020

    I'm thinking of Camino Portuguese in September - Portugal is open to UK at the moment and I'm hoping that by September there will be enough accommodation options - whether Spain will let us in by then is another matter, so might just have to turn around at the border and do the Portugal section...

    Newbie with questions for the French Way

    Hi Jodi, I am also a veteran of many marathons, ultras and triathlons and had walked in all my gear several times. I allowed myself an ‘easy’ average of around 23km per day, being a little blasé about it only being around 13 miles.......all I can say is that walking is VERY different to running...

    Loud bangs?

    Does anyone know what the loud bangs are that I have been hearing this morning between Astorga and Rabanal? They remind me of avalanch canons but I don’t see much snow - unless the sound is traveling across from the Pyrenees??

    A Winter Camino

    Thanks for advice Jay. The coil I have boils pretty quick - I'm taking it more as an emergency for when I get to an albergue at the end of the day and nothing is open. It's then I'll want something warm. During the day, I'm hoping to find at least one place on-route to buy a sandwich and a...

    A Winter Camino

    Thanks for that link mspath! A thousand answers to my first question - ha ha! I borrowed one from my daughter for a 3 month trip to South East Asia earlier this year and it was my once a week treat to have a nice mug of Earl Grey! I'm now definitely going to invest in one of my own for this...

    A Winter Camino

    I'll be starting my Camino (Frances) on 24/11 (provided O'Leary doesn't make even more cancellations!!!) and hope to walk into Santiago on New Years Eve. I think I have my basic essential kit sorted and managed to get it to 6.5kg which is a little over my '10%' but feels comfortable enough to...

    Rough cost of Camino Frances in December

    Thanks, that's really encouraging. I have sort of worked out my itinerary based on an 'organised' tour itinerary I found on the internet, as I figured those towns would also at least have hotel/b&b accommodation if the albergues were not available, but hoping to stay in albergues most of the...

    Booking private accommodation

    Can I ask what your average nightly spend on accommodation was? Trying to work out some kind of budget for when I set off in December. Only looking for a ball-park figure, as appreciate all accom will be priced differently.

    Rough cost of Camino Frances in December

    Hi all, I'm new to the forum and am loving the wealth of information on here. I am planning to undertake the Camino Frances setting off on 24/11 and hoping to arrive in Santiago on 31/12. One piece of info I can't seem to find recent info on is what I should expect to spend. I will be...
