Camino Inspired & Tested Gear!
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
2024 edition: The Brierley Camino Frances Guide
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
We really enjoyed our visit in early January of 2019 when we were finishing our volunteer time at Granon and walking as pilgrims to Burgos.
 
Altus BALI Sleeping bag liner
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
This is the best anthropological museum I have ever visited (and I worked at the Smithsonian in Washington, DC!)

Yes. I built an extra day in Burgos into my calendar so that I could spend more time at this museum. Even when it is not free admission day, it is worth spending a few hours here. There will be many grand churches to see along the camino, but not another great anthropology museum like this one.
 
Altus Poncho (ATMOSPHERIC H30)
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
And, even when it's not free, seniors get a reduced price, regardless of where you come from. AND be sure and ask for the sello - it's a good one!
