    Concrete on Ruta de Lana

    To be honest if you’re planning to walk in early Spring or Winter I think the mud could be more of an issue than concrete.

    Concrete on Ruta de Lana

    We walked the Lana last year. There’s a little bit of road walking - small back roads - as you walk out of Alicante on the first day. After that it was mainly on rural paths except when you reached a small town or village.

    The abandoned town after Salmerón - Villaescusa de los Palositos

    I did message Pepe at the time to let him know but I didn’t hear back.

    The abandoned town after Salmerón - Villaescusa de los Palositos

    Just to clarify our experience ….. in May this year Pepe in Villaconejos told us that an agreement had been reached with the owners of the finca that pilgrims could walk through. We arrived at the entry gate and picked up the key which was hanging on a tree next to the gate. We stuck to the...

    Alcalá del Júcar

    We had planned to take a rest day there and spend 2 nights. After one night we changed plan and walked out early the next day. The beauty is in the walk up to, down into ( knee killer alert!) and then out of the gorge…. With amazing views. The town itself was full of tourist buses and not...

    Question about Salmeron to Trillo, via Tetas de Viana - on the Lana

    The phone number is on the albergue door. We called and someone arrived to let us in 10 mins later. Our mobile coverage (Vodafone) was really weak so a local kindly lent us his phone.

    Cuenca albergue sees 45% drop in peregrinos

    We walked the Lana in May/June this year from Alicante to Burgos. During the entire route we only met 2 other Lana pilgrims. The Cuenca albergue was the biggest we stayed at. Many of the others only had a few beds so it was lucky that there weren’t any other pilgrims. We had to call a couple...

    LIVE from the Camino Ruta de la Lana (and some Quijote/Cervantes)

    I did call her and she said there was nothing at all …… I think it was her that gave me the phone number for the taxi driver ( but not sure about that tbh).

    LIVE from the Camino Ruta de la Lana (and some Quijote/Cervantes)

    My partner and I walked the lovely Lana from Alicante to Burgos in May/June this year. Your itinerary is basically the same as ours. Accommodation was quite complicated. There were albergues, but you had to call a couple of days ahead to let them know you're coming and find out where to get...

    LIVE from the Camino BP on the Requena (from Valencia) June 2022

    I agree! Juan Jose (Juanjo) was an amazing support when I contacted him recently to help a pilgrim we met on the Lana who had an accident resulting in a fractured foot. He organised local people to provide all the help needed to get the pilgrim back to UK. Can’t thank him enough.
