Sheffield James on the Camino Viejo -- LOTS of good info!
@peregrina2000, I walked from Pamplona to Miranda de Ebro, then cut inland to follow roughly the GR route Caminka took to reach Aguilar de Campoo. It is definitely the Camino Olvidado after this junction, but I have no real idea what to call the pre-Aguilar section (though some is part of the...- Sheffield James

Hi Caminka, is it possible to see a latest draft version of the guide to help answer your question about any additional information before you publish in the resources section?- Sheffield James

The last photos were from one day’s walk from Miranda de Ebro to Quintana Martin Galindez + includes one of the infamous Sobron footbridge. These next photos were taken at Frias, Oña and Poza de la Sal on my ‘diversion’ day....- Sheffield James

I am happy to go with @omicko’s explanation of the nomenclature of Pablo’s place. There is a sign saying Las Hoces as you cross the little bridge and that’s what I followed until arriving at the accommodation. The property has a big Albergue sign at the entrance but other than that I saw...- Sheffield James

@omicko, I nearly fell off my chair when I read about your ‘role’ in this hoax! The camino de santiago has had so many myths and legends over the centuries + RD on the Olvidado shall now surely take its place on the list.- Sheffield James

Thanks @Kaiur for the name of the drink. I’ll try to post a photo, though it won’t do it justice.- Sheffield James

Day 24 (Wed): Cubillos del Sil - Trabadelo, Camino Francés (~33kms) I awoke at 05.30 this morning. I’m not sure if it was because of the excitement about completing my Olvidado camino in a few hours time, or whether it was a subconscious preparation for the waking times I’d have to get used to...- Sheffield James

Day 23 (Tues): Losada - Cubillos del Sil (27kms) As in Igüena, the bar owner opened up early just for the benefit of the three peregrinos - I’d become quite friendly with Jaomi the Spaniard (sorry, Catalunian!) and Jean-Paul the French man (from Nantes) by now. Breakfast cost €3 or €4 depending...- Sheffield James

Day 22 (Mon): Igüeña - Losada (~23kms) The day began with breakfast in the restaurant-bar La Playa at 07.00. I stayed on after the French and Spanish pilgrims left, but I was then asked to leave just before 8am as the bar was closing again. The young owner kindly gave me a cup of molten...- Sheffield James

Day 20 (Sat): La Magdalena - Fascar (~46kms) My accommodation was approximately 1km before La Magdalena, so after breakfast of the dreaded Churros, I walked to the town and then the short distance on to Canales. I must have missed an arrow directing me left once there because I was soon out of...- Sheffield James

Day 19 (Fri): La Pola de Gordón - La Magdalena (~23kms) The day began with breakfast in a bar in town, before I crossed the river and the railway track in the direction of Los Barrios de Gordón, a few kilometres away. There were no arrows for the Olvidado en-route and it appeared -to me- that...- Sheffield James

Agreed! BTW, Cafe Bar Velez was a nice place to have an end-of-day drink. I’m sorry if it was closed when you were in town. Are you still on the road?- Sheffield James

Hi @caminka, I’m not familiar with the name camping El Chaltén. I think @omicko and I are talking about Camping Las Hoces de Vegacervera. It is located on a side road opposite the bar he has mentioned in his response to you. A quick check of the internet shows the address at Calle La Ranera...- Sheffield James

Day 17 (Wed): Boñar - Vegacervera (~27kms) There was no breakfast -nor any sign of life - in evidence at Hostal Nisi at 07.30, so instead I headed for Café Azteca, where I’d enjoyed the most delicious hamburger and patatas fritas the evening before. Today’s stage involved leaving town with a...- Sheffield James

@omicko, thanks v much for the reassurance. All I need do now is find the way out of Boñar; I don’t want to follow the La Robla arrows by mistake!!- Sheffield James

What exactly do you mean “not easy”? I don’t mind the physicality so much as the likelihood of getting lost and/or dangerous terrain.- Sheffield James

Day 15 (Mon): Puente Almuhey- Cistierna (21kms) The first hour of the day was spent largely on country tracks, with the highlight being the passing of a small, perfectly-still lake, that made for great photographs of the reflections in the surface of the water. This was followed by carretera...- Sheffield James
