    Oviedo to Leon?

    The bus journey is stunning! Wonderful views, and it stops in a lot of the towns that are on the Camino route. So it's a good way of being able to enjoy the scenery safely

    Thanks for the translation Laurie! Good to have that clarified by the expert.

    Oviedo to Leon?

    Agree with Joe about reading the threads and doing a bit of research. We actually met someone walking this route from North to South . He was one of the only 5 pilgrims we met in 6 days! And yes, it is a beautiful camino, whichever way you choose to walk it!

    Mieres to Oviedo

    I so agree with you Laurie ! But even one section is better than none ! It was remarkably hilly after the Frances and my legs ache today. And although I met no one walking, I had much encouragement from locals who seemed delighted to see a peregrina !

    Hola! Having spent an amazing two weeks on the Frances , I needed to get to Oviedo for my flight home tomorrow . I was on the bus from Leon ( a stunningly beautiful journey) and although it was - 5 with a heavy frost the sun was shining and I suddenly decided to get off at Mieres and walk on the...

    Camino San Salvador Very Busy

    Extraordinary! We walked mid September, and saw a grand total of 5 pilgrims in six days! We were all on our own in la Robla, with one other in Pajares, and one in Mieres. And we were so lucky with the weather at that time of year as well...

    Anyone who knows what happened to http://caminodelsalvador.net

    Hi Beatrice, are you looking for a guide to the Salvador? Are you aware that one ( excellent) has been written by Rebekah Scott and Laurie (peregrina2000) ? I'm sure if you send one of them a PM they can send you the link. We used their guide, and also printed off the elevations from the Gronze...

    Beware the dog in Poladura de la Tercia!

    Al, that is incredible! John got attacked by that dog. It bit him on his ankle, luckily through his boot. It then kept coming and growling. We had to shout at it, and wave sticks. Meanwhile the owner completely ignored us. John was really shocked afterwards, and it took a while of walking to...

    What about the albergue in Mieres Del Camino ?

    Hi, we stayed here last September. It was ok, but not great. It's quite a walk out of Mieres, which meant we didn't want to go back in again. The bunks are VERY close together. It was us, and one other pilgrim. In the middle of the night, he fell through the slats of his bunk, which just broke...

    San Salvador cross picture

    Thanks Laurie, I know, amazing , especially considering they were taken on a mobile phone, not a camera! Just lucky with the light and the weather. The first one , the sun was behind us, and the second one, is looking back, so I guess that explains the difference. It was still quite early in the...
