    Who's walking La Lana in April

    I hope you remember the lovely weather I enjoyed on the Lana last May 😁 🌴☀️ and the not so lovely weather others endured last April 🐟💧⛈️.

    Who's walking La Lana in April

    Rock on, Marilyn. Hopefully, foot / knee / back / hip willing, see you on 28th April in Bilbao and am setting off on the 29th. Glad to see you are going back to finish off the Lana. You'll have fun - may the weather Gods be with you! The target is to complete the Olvidado by the 21st May and...

    LIVE from the Camino And we're off. Camino de la Lana. May 2019.

    LOL! Better get your **** into gear then 😁😆. TBH, I was going at the end of April / beginning of May anyway and flights are really cheap if booked now. So, after a quick online chat with M, took the plunge, bought a one way ticket and arrive in Bilbao 28th April. Woohoo. You know how these walks...

    Two Weeks on the Lana

    There are stage by stage blogs pinned to the top of the forum. You might also want to give serious thought to the Camino de Madrid if you haven't already. It has a lot going for it and is a nice length that will give you a few days in e.g. Madrid. The Lana is a nice Camino with plenty to see...

    LIVE from the Camino And we're off. Camino de la Lana. May 2019.

    Funny you should mention that. I've just been looking at the excellent Levante Guide here: http://vieiragrino.com/ and thinking that one might be fun, as a lover of long and lonely paths! Then there is the Olvidado and beyond, for which there seems to be plenty of info now. Back to YouTube ....

    LIVE from the Camino And we're off. Camino de la Lana. May 2019.

    Gosh! Just re-read last year's Lana blog to get the juices flowing again! That was a lot of fun. Was that really seven months ago? Itchy feet has started so attention has a-turned to this year, 2020. Where to go, which camino(s) to tackle ....... ?

    Best mobile phone SIM for Ruta de la Lana

    I bought a 12GB Three data sim card in the UK the day before leaving for the Lana, valid for a month, which cost about £20 I think. I have a dual sim phone so for the very odd phone call, I used my normal sim. With data roaming, it made sense. The new sim worked perfectly for the entire month...

    LIVE from the Camino And we're off. Camino de la Lana. May 2019.

    Hi there. Just head up into the old town. You get great views in all directions, the higher you go, the better they are. I stayed in Hotel Pedro Torres, bang in the centre, €28 for a nice 3* hotel with no facilities except a nice room with all mod cons, just turned up but it's on Booking.com...

    LIVE from the Camino BP starts from Alicante, version 3.0 (2019)!

    Ah, such a shame. I cancelled my daily newspaper as I thought I'd be able to read your blogs for news instead - far more interesting! Daily accounts are super useful for others when planning their own future walks, and gives people like me who've never heard of a route new ideas, schemes and...

    I know nothing at all about the Camino Vasco. Are you blogging somewhere as well? Albergues along the way or casas?

    LIVE from the Camino BP starts from Alicante, version 3.0 (2019)!

    LOL ! Who knows! It would be great to find my long lost glasses under that tree if for no other reason! Great walk, BP. It was fun to read your account and compare so soon after my own trek. I'm glad you sorted out posting photos, too. A blog plus photos I think gets others really interested in...

    Glad you are having lots of fun! How's the weather for you at the moment? Not too hot I hope?

    Following your every stride (hop?) and still loving the photos. Maybe a rest day is in order? Slowly slowly catchy monkey!

    It’s funny, but the more I read your blog and the more I remember my own walk which wasn’t that long ago but somehow seems it, the more I want to do this walk again in the Autumn. The thing is I guess, that it’s so fresh in the memory that it would be fun to do it again and I have all the maps...

You can easily have a look as it’s on the way into town off the Camino, about 100m from the entrance to the posh hotel in the castle (Parador?). It was not the cheapest albergue at...

    Totally agree about El Cazador being dreadful; dim, grim, depressing, like a bad funeral run by someone who just doesn't speak more than a word at a time and only stares (another 'local bar for local people'), in contrast to La Mazmorra, which was very jolly. Getting food in the village was a...

    I spent the evening in the bar after having dinner from one of the shops in the very nice square in front of the Ayuntamiento, going through the tapas on the counter one by one. Fabulous and recommended. 41 degrees C at 5 pm? Wow! That's impressive. I think I'd want my bed by 9 o' clock after...
