    Baamonde to Sobrado dos Monxes

    Yes I went through As Cruces.There is 1 bar open about halfway with a small grocery store and coffee, beer, etc. Otherwise a long but easy walk through soft terrain.

    LIVE from the Camino Transport service Baamonde to Sobrado on Norte

    Many albergues are OPEN. I did not stay in a single one that was full.....most had plenty of space except for local tourist areas like Zarautz, Santanilla. Most pilgrims booked the night before without problem. Most places accepting touchless payment with gpay or applepay...I rarely use cash...

    I am on Norte noe. I was surprised how many are open. I made reservations early this year bc there was almost nothing. But friends on the Norte now had almost no problem searching the night before. Couple of locations where it was tough for them around Zarautz, Deba and Santanilla bc it's...

    Monastario de Zenarruza is lovely, now has 21 beds

    CAUTION HIKE PROFILE: I made reservations at izarbide aterpetxea [Ibiri Auzoa], as this is the last stop before the monastery and a very arduous uphil mountain. They even asked to make sure I was aware. I elected to stay here, rest, and start the big climb in the morning rather than at end of...
