    Montamarta accommodations?

    In October 2012 I stayed at Casa Rural El Brunedo........there were 2 rooms available , plus a very nice bathroom. This place is on the main road, as I walked in to Montamarta......I think it is the N 630. At the time it was 20E for a single, plus 3E for laundry. There was also a small...

    Windswept's video of the VdlP - a perfect cure for insomnia

    A thousand thanks Windswept, for sharing your journey with us. I followed your blogs, and today have just watched your video. In 2012 I walked from Granada to Finisterre, seeing very few Pilgrims------reading your story enabled me to reminisce and relive my time in Spain. I now wonder how I...

    Granada or Seville

    Hi Jenny, I'm Heather's friend who walked the Mozarabe to Finisterre via the Sanabres last year. Yes, the Mozarabe was very difficult and very lonely-----an amazing life experience but certainly no walk in the park. I see you are from Sydney----I live in Perth, so if you send me a PM maybe I...

    What are options Cea to A LAxe?

    Last November, after staying in Cea, I walked to Estacian de Lalin and stayed at A Ponte Cafe Bar Restaurante----it was basic accommodation but the owner was very friendly and I had a lovely evening meal.When you arrive in Botos, you will see it up to the left. It is on the northern side of the...

    Please post detours

    Hi Plogaw, I passed through Granje de Morereula last October. There were seven Peregrinos there that night. All of us said we froze that night. In the morning, we all admitted to putting on extra clothes during the night. Fortunately a few of us asked for 2 blankets , so that was a bit of...

    3 Albergues closed again!

    The hotel I stayed in last October in Salamanca was Hotel Emperatriz 11------in Rua Mayor. I am sure this is the same one Heather stayed in. Cheers, Sandra

    Hello Sean, I hope to start walking from Granada on the 19th. I leave Australia tomorrow. Maybe I will see you after Cordoba, depending on how slowly I walk. It is great to know there is someone else on the trail. Buen Camino. Sandra

    Who is on the Via De La Plata from mid-September to end Octo

    I will be on the VDLP from approximately Oct 8. You will be far ahead of me , I think. I will reach Merida at that time ( from Granada ) and then continue on to Santiago via The Sanabres. Buen Camino. Sandra.

    VdlP from Mérida, in my third day.

    Hi Todd, I sent the last post before I read your Day 4. I am so sorry about your injury. I pray the rest in Casar de Caceres will enable healing for your knee. Take care, and accept whatever help you are offered. This is just a little setback on the journey. Sandra.

    VdlP from Mérida, in my third day.

    Thank you for the blog Todd. I will be on your trail within the month. It is interesting to see what I will be up against. My childhood was spent in a hot and dry area of Australia, so I am hoping this will stand by me. Your photos are beautiful. Thank you. Take care. Sandra.

    Stu and Joan completed the Plata

    Thanks for sharing. Your photos are beautiful. I leave in 2 weeks to walk from Granada to Santiago, so was very interested in your blog. However, the photos showing the muddy trails etc prepared me, as I expect rain ( and wind and fog ) on the Sanabres !! Sandra.

    Lonesome Trail???

    I will be walking from Granada mid September so expect to be on the Sanabres mid November. I expect to not meet many pilgrims ( although I would love to meet some ), but I am wondering if there are any statistics as to how many Pilgrims arrived in Santiago in November 2011, especially those who...
