    LIVE from the Camino North to Granada

    Day 1: Almería to Rioja Luckily, there was nobody about to stare at me emerging from the sea just before sunrise on Friday. Lovely warm calm sea. Once out of the city centre, next few km were pretty horrible, beside a busy road, then through endless dreary suburbs and satellites. If I ever...

    Public transport along the Camino Sanabrés

    The aim of this thread (opened at request of @SabineP ) is to make a list of public transport options (other than taxi) along the Camino Sanabrés. The Camino Sanabrés goes from Granja de Moreruela to Santiago de Compostela. I've divided it in three sections (Granja de Moreruela-A Gudiña; A...

    Some info on the Camino Mozarabe from Almeria

    In April I walked the Camino Mozarabe from Almeria to Merida (650 km) in 27 stages. It was a sometimes tough but all in all very rewarding walk with all the beautiful landscapes of Andalusia and Extremadura, from the very dry east near Almeria through the mountains to Granada (plenty of views...

    River route into Burgos (PDF)

    So, I am very meticulous and an extremely visual person. I made this PDF for my friend and I illustrating the walk from Orbaneja Riopico, through Castañares, and into Burgos along the river. This is an alternate to the industrial route. This was made in part to the directions provided by...

    My film of the Mozárabe from Málaga to Finisterre

    I have finally completed and uploaded to Youtube my presentation of my recent walk along the Camino Mozárabe. It gives a flavour of the way along the Mozárabe from Málaga to Mérida, the Via de la Plata from Mérida to Granja de Moreruela, the Camino Sanabrés from Granja to Santiago de Compostela...

    Walking guide -- Mozárabe from Almería to Granada

    Kevin O'Brien has just emailed me a walking guide he put together after his recent Camino Mozárabe. This is a wonderful document to have on the forum. I will also post it in the resources section. I am tempted! Buen camino, Laurie

    History of Primitivo route?

    I'm sure this is covered here somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Can someone tell me - or post a link to a thread - about the history of the Primitivo route? Is it an authentic earlier Camino route than the Frances? Thanks, Jill

    Alan´s Winter Vdlp -- 2012

    Heading steadily northwards on the VdlP, now having a rest day in Merida, a week and a day out from Seville. Only one morning of drizzle, between Almaden and El Real de la Jara, so can't complain, especially as England seems to be largely under water judging from a brief item on the TVE...

    What was your first day like?

    First day on the Camino. It is said that the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. I was no exception. I had micro-planned myself from my home in the Beaches, Toronto to Pamplona in Northern Spain. Subway to the Red Rocket, then to Pearson Airport then to Schipol Airport then to...

    Back from the Primitivo -- June 2012

    I finished my second Camino Primitivo at the end of June -- notes from the first, in 2008, are here: https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/my-stages-on-the-camino-primitivo.4841/ I wanted to update those comments and say that the Primitivo is, IMO, a perfect Camino (especially if...

    My stages on the Vdlp

    I thought I'd post my stages and the approximate kms so others could get a basis for comparison when trying to figure out how long they should plan for the Vdlp. My walk had a lot of short days, and 3 rest days, so it was a pretty leisurely pace. In retrospect, I could have shaved 4 or 5 days...

    My stages on the Camino Primitivo

    I have just finished walking the Camino Primitivo from Oviedo to Santiago. It is a beautiful walk, more rural than most. There are guides to the route, but I thought I'd write up some comments for those who might be going soon. DAY 1 – Oviedo to Cornellana (32 km) If I were to do this...
