    Almadén de la Plata - Monesterio

    We walked that stage in one day in April last year and in hindsight I really wish we had stopped in El Real de la Jara. I found it a really long day and I was exhausted by the time we reached Monesterio. As you say it was only day 4 and it was really hot.

    Sanabres "Glitch"

    The albergue in As Eiras also has a table outside the albergue offering cool drinks and snacks. We called earlier in the day and were met on arrival by a member of the group. The next day we walked to Albergueria and stayed in the unique Albergue El Rincon del Peregrino, and then walked to...

    Sanabres "Glitch"

    We walked the VLDP/Sanabres in April last year and broke up the stages by staying one night in As Eiras in the small donativo albergue in the village. It is in an old house right on the Camino and has 4 beds in 2 rooms. There is a kitchen and lots of food provided so you can cook a meal. It is...

    Fuente de cantos where to sleep

    Hi,we were there last year at about the same time as you - Saturday night the week before Semana Santa. We stayed in the Hotel Rural La Fabrica which is in a beautifully restored old factory. You can book via their website or contact them directly for a pilgrim discount. We had originally...

    Guillena - municipal albergue still closed?

    It was closed earlier this year. We stayed at the private Albergue Luz del Camino. Very friendly people and reasonable facilities. 14 euros per person. I booked via email about 2 weeks before. If you have time and feel like starting with 2 easy days I would suggest breaking that first stage and...

    South/central Spain in April versus September (aside from weather)

    We started walking from Sevilla at the end of March this year. Great weather, luckily we were ahead of the heatwave that started in mid April. We only had 1 day of rain which was our last day before SDC. We mainly stayed in albergues and had no trouble getting a bed. The week before Easter...

    Via de la Plata/Sanabres

    We are out here! Most nights over the last few weeks there have been between 5 and 12 pilgrims in the albergues. There are definitely more people walking since Ourense.

    Camino Sanabres - blankets provided in albergues?

    Hi James, we are on the Sanabres and currently in Asturianos. The only albergue that we have come across since Fuenterroble that doesn’t provide blankets is the Municipal in Zamora. Not sure from here though. There are very few people in the albergues at the moment so we have been able to have 2...

    LIVE from the Camino Walking the Via de la Plata with New Friends

    Wow Karin, I am in awe of your positivity and stamina. And Sarah as well. She must be really struggling with all her problems with her feet. Hope the last two days go well for you both and you can walk into Santiago together.

    Another challenging day! But you still keep your sense of humour. You and Sarah are so lucky to have met each other. May the sun shine on you tomorrow and the next albergue be open!

    Sevilla

    We have booked into the Hotel Simon for 4 nights prior to starting the VDLP on March 28th. I booked via the hotel website but in the comments part of the booking I mentioned that we were pilgrims and asked if they gave discounts to pilgrims. The next day I received an email saying that my...

    Accommodation on the VdlP: Do I need to book private?

    We plan to start from Sevilla on 28th March. I emailed Luz del Camino a few days ago but have not received a reply. We had previously booked to to stay there in March 2020 but of course had to cancel our Camino. On that occasion my emails were answered very promptly. My next step is to try via...
