    Shoes for the Salvador

    Hi. Just saw your post. Same as Peregrino 2000 I'd also suggest Trail runners, shoes. I wore my Assics gel for the Salvador in August and despite the heat no blisters and feet fine. No need for boots. Daniel

    Weather in August in the mountains

    Hi. I walked in August last year and the weather was fine. It got cooler as I got closer to Oviedo but overall not too hot. Daniel

    Open albergues on the San Salvador

    Hi. I walked late August and only issue was La Robla but did get a private room for 20 euros. All other Albergues were open and very few pilgrims. I understand your concern but the way always provides. We will walk the Portuguese interior Camino from Viseu in October and will just wing it as...

    Salvador questions

    Unfortunately it's a bit late now but the highest point on the San Salvador is close to 1568 metres. Hi. Having recently being attacked and bitten by a dog while training to do this route I was, like yourself fearful and anxious setting off on this route last week. However the magic of the...

    Salvador questions

    Hi. Just returned from the San Salvador. Only once was there a possibility of getting lost and even there I did not have to use GPS. I would suggest maybe taking 6 days to enjoy its beauty even more but then again you are also going on the Primitivo. I have Maps.me on my phone with all the...

    Hey guys. Thank you again for the updates. I'm getting quite anxious when you mentioned bruised and injured as I'm taking this trip solo. That first image of the mountain ahead however makes me want to walk it more. Have a safe trip tomorrow to Oviedo. Daniel

    LIVE from the Camino Salvador June 2022

    Hi. Yes I believe collecting pilgrims is no longer an option. As for food I think it needs to be bought in a supermercado halfway the stage or day before. I believe there are two stages that we need to carry our own food due to lack of shops/ cafes etc. Is it advisable to book Sandra's 2 days in...

    LIVE from the Camino Salvador June 2022

    Ah man. Your posts are fantastic. I'm archiving them all for August. My only concern so far reading is the possibility of serious heat then but weather is always unpredictable. I'm assuming that walking on my own will not be an issue. I love meeting pilgrims buy I also like my own company so...

    Thanks so much Marie

    Leon to Oviedo

    Perfect. Thank you. I hope to break it into 6 stages although the elevations etc don't look much tougher that Del Norte. Perhaps the last stage. Enjoy the way.

    Leon to Oviedo

    Thanks folks for the info. Fortunately I have all camino routes on Maps.me but prefer not to use unless extremely lost(yet to happen). Good to hear accommodation is not an issue. Which is easier to fly to for bus to Leon, Bilbao or Madrid? Santander is not an option as the dates don't work.
