    Arriving in Villafranca del Bierzo today

    Yes! Past pilgrims and camino guides regard it as the most photographed house along the camino.

    The white house sits atop a hill, framed by two mature trees, about half a kilometer away on the left side of the camino, past most of the vineyards, sort of downhill before start getting closer to the village/s and town. I heard that the house is the most photographed house along the camino. I...

    LIVE from the Camino Anyone near Castrojeriz now

    True. Albergue Orion should not be called Korean Albergue simply because it is popular due to its "bibimbap" dinner. However, their "bibimbap" dinner is authentically prepared by the Korean lady (Changsui), Dani's partner in the albergue.

    Private albergues/Guesthouse In Ventas De Narón or Salceda

    I immensely enjoyed Tia Teresa's laundry service and half pound entrecot. I wanted the chuleton but Tia Teresa's husband (I think), told me it was too much (size/quantity) for one person. Morning of my departure, he drew my tired and hairy face on my morning coffee. He's so cool. Buen Camino.

    Where to stay in SJPDP- September 2024

    Yes you can reserve and stay for two nights. However, when we stayed there September 2022, "angels" woke us up, I think 530am or 6am, to get ready to leave and get out of the place even though we had reservations for two days/two nights. We had to stay out until they are ready for pilgrims again.

    Where to stay in O Cebreiro

    A lot of places are always fully booked with Booking.com. These places want you call them and make the reservations directly. Some also want you to confirm reservation day before or morning of your reservation. Casa Carolo was very understanding seeing that I am a solo old pilgrim with physical...

    Excited for my upcoming bed reservation in Borda!

    I prefer Borda over Orisson. Laurent, Borda's host does his best to make his guests comfortable and ready for a safe and enjoyable walk to Roncesvalles. He prepares delicious communal dinner and breakfast himself followed by safety orientation. Stayed there twice (2022, 2023), plan to stay there...

    Travelling from Borda to Roncesvalles

    Laurent at Borda will tell you that when you get to that fork, the safe way down to Roncesvalles is to follow the rule, "Right is Life!" Enjoy the breath-taking Pyrenees. Buen Camino.

    Where/how to get taxi from Cruz de Ferro?

    I have reconstructed right knee (actually entire right leg and hip) from traumatic car accident, I found the downhill walk from Cruz de Ferro as nowhere close to the downhill from El Acebo de San Miguel to Riego de Ambros. That downhill from El Acebo killed my knees. If I have known about the...
