    My Experience on the Invierno

    Chantada to Rodeiro I usually look at elevation maps every night to get an idea of what next day will look like. One thing stands out on that day.

I also remember the way leaving pobra. just before monforte along the green fields, theres a farm. the way there was waterlogged as mentioned in the guide. the moment you enter...

    My Experience on the Invierno

    A Rua to Quiroga The guidebook mentions a possibility of missing a tunnel leaving A Rua, I think new signs and arrows have been added to make sure people dont. The walk till now is always interesting because you'd often find yourself walking side by side Rio Sil or climbing a mountain that...

    You're correct in your assumptions :p I'm from Lebanon Thats actually one of the reasons why Im doing the Invierno, figured it would be nice to have a little solitude as opposed to what I've been told about thelast 200-100km. But so far its all been great! Im staying at "in-between" stages and...

    Another Invierno Guide

    Hello Everyone, The guidebook on this forum for the Invierno is certainly very helpful. But I also found this website that offers some maps as well as how-to-get-there hints and tips along with daily stages. I liked the daily maps as they help you situate yourself and plan the days walk...
