    The Meseta; Burgos to Leon

    Having just returned from Spain, I would like to share with you some facts and thoughts: Two year ago, May 2016, I walked with two friends from Pamplona to Burgos, took a bus from Burgos to Leon, walked on to Santiago, then to Muxia and down to Finesterre. Altogether some 650 km. Last year, May...

    Burgos to Leon

    Two years ago I skipped this section due to lack of time. I was told it is the least interesting part of the camino and that's why I chose to skip it. Now I am thinking of walking it in mid-May with my wife. I would like to read what you people who have walked it think of my idea of walking just...

    Burgos to Leon

    In 2016 I walked with two friends from Pamplona to Santiago and then on to Muxia and Fistera. We skipped the Burgos - Leon part (took a bus) and now I am thinking of doing just this section. Any thoughts about it, anybody?

    Beilari in SJPP if dinner isn't an option?

    My wife and I stayed there last May; the place is O.K. but dinner is no big deal at all...

    If I arrive to SJPdP @ 8.45 will I get to Roncesvalles too late?

    make sure you reserve a bed at Orisson; it's a small place. By the way, Logrono is just about the ugliest town along the camino. last year I stayed at Viana, a few km before Logrono; a lovely little town...

    If I arrive to SJPdP @ 8.45 will I get to Roncesvalles too late?

    Sounds to me like you are looking for trouble; of the entire Camino, this is the hardest section to walk... I am no hero; on May 17th I will start from SJPP to Orisson and continue the next day to Roncesvalles.

    considering canceling my trip :(

    Like many other people, I think you are over-rating the difficulties of walking the camino. I am a 68 year old man and last May I started off from Pamplona, skipped the Burgos - Leon stretch, continued to Santiago, from there to Muxia on the Atlantic coast and down to Finistere. Believe me; no...

    Bad Albergues

    There is nothing "charming" about filthy accomodations. Excpecting an albergue to be reasonably clean does not mean that a pilgrim is looking for luxury. You can be poor yet clean...
