    Files for accomodations on the Camino de Madrid

    I agree. Gronze has maps and notes albergues along the way. I booked cheep hotels in Madrid and 2 nights in Segovia.

    Camino Madrid or Invierno in April?

    I saw your YouTube video before I went and that encouraged me to try that route. Now I’m planning the Madrid camino again in spring 2022.

    help, i booked up to stage 4 but can’t find a place to stay now — Camino de Madrid

    Stay the course. I have walked the Camino Madrid and loved it. It was quiet and very peaceful. I do not speak Spanish and I had no problem getting hostels along the way. I also booked places up to Segovia. The rest of the way, hostels should be easy to get. My plan is to again walk the Camino...

    Starting from Madrid - where would you go through?

    Spring is perhaps better because of all the wildflowers. I didn’t meet many pilgrims and that was good for me - lots of time for reflection.

    Starting from Madrid - where would you go through?

    I did the Madrid Camino in May 2019 and loved it. (See my YouTube video). If I do it again (and I plan to) I would continue to Leon and do the San Salvador/Primitivo routes. I would also recommend staying in downtown Madrid an extra night. I walked to the edge of the city and took the subway...

    Camino de Madrid Handbook

    I hope you get the chance to walk this route. I walked it in May 2019 and really enjoyed it. I met very few fellow pilgrims along the way so it can be a bit lonely at times, but I enjoyed the peaceful walks each day. One thing you may consider is to walk to the edge of Madrid and take the subway...

    Camino de Madrid April 2020

    My short answer is - it depends. The Camino de Madrid has fewer walkers and I personally liked it that way. When I walked it last May, I only encountered 5 other pilgrims along the way. If you like lots of people interaction, choose a route accordingly.

    I’ve watched your YouTube video as well. It gave me the idea of walking this route.

    Camino Madrid or Invierno in April?

    If you want to know what walking in spring is like, I walked it in early May this year and made a YouTube video of my walk. Search for "Camino Madrid May 2019". Sorry - it's 26 minutes long but should give you a good idea of what to expect along the way. I loved it!

    My (leisurely) stages on the Camino de Madrid

    The Camino Madrid is a wonderful walk with few walkers so if you like solitude, this is the route to do. I did this route in May 2019 and created a YouTube video. If you search Camino Madrid May 2019 you can take a look. Sorry- it’s 26 minutes long. I only met 5 or 6 pilgrims but I really...

    As far as I know May 1 is a holiday in Spain. Restaurants and stores may be closed that day.

    Madrid to Sahgun doing 15 to 20 K days?

    I’m starting in Madrid on May 2/19 and only walking to Leon. Since the Camino Frances is busy after Leon, I plan to take the train to Santiago and then walking the Muzia Finnesterre route. This will also be my fourth Camino. I’ve booked my nights till Segovia but no further. This is my first...
