Everything that people promised about the San Salvador was true - hard but absolutely beautiful. It was certainly comparable in every way to the Primitivo. Thanks to Laurie for all her advice. To make everything really perfect, none of our camino family (10 in total) snored!
Yes, I was wondering about that since it's not possible on other caminos. We'll just take foodstuff with us to see us through to the next stocking-up point. Thanks again.
Yes, although we've never phoned ahead on any of the other caminos we've been on, I think we might on this one since there are so few beds and few alternatives. Of course, with the new guidebook things will become even worse...
Yes, I've read all your stuff! We plan to do the 6 day version, stopping at La Robla, Poladura, Pajares, Pola de Lena, and Mieres.
This is very useful, thanks again. Really looking forward to it. If it's anything like the Primitivo and the Vadiniense, we should be in for a marvellous time.
Hi, My wife and I will be walking the Camino del Salvador over 6 days starting 8th October. Is there any need to phone ahead to the albergues, particularly in the small villages? Thanks for your help.
