Bodenaya- traditional Albergue with love, warmth & the true Camino spirit
Vilar de Cas - bright, modern, beautiful space run by a very cheerful family

The weather today is absolute misery! This morning I walked hours with my head down, tightly clutching my umbrella in driving rain.
I’m warming with a coffee and not looking forward to returning to the way. The Hospital route is impassable due to snowfall. Unsure I want to take the Pola...
Hello everyone,
This is my second day on the Camino Primitivo and I’ve stopped walking after only 10km. The weather is absolutely miserable with endless cycles of hard rain, showers, thunder, and drizzle. It is difficult to enjoy the views peeking under an umbrella- and constantly watching...
