Bus from Cruz de Ferro (Manjarin) to Cacabelos

I need to bus around this area for time sake. I do not want to miss the Cruz de Ferro. This is the only way I am able to do it. Does anyone have any information about how would one go about this? Rome to Rio not helpful…
Thanks

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

I just checked and it does involve a taxi " on demand " from Santa Colomba de Somoza ( Cruz de Ferro ) to Rodrigatos De La Obispalia and then bus to Cacabelos.
If financially possible I would take the taxi for the whole route.
Good luck!

Sherry,
You might consider hitching on route LE 142 to Ponferrada and then taking the bus to Cacabelos.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
If you walk past Cruz de Fero a couple of KM to Refugio de Manjarin, you can call a taxi. I remember when I was there in a snowstorm in 2016 that he had the taxi number posted and pilgrims were being picked up. I think they had to taxi to the Ponferrada bus station to go to Cacabelos.
 
Thank you
 
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,-
Just checked Gronze this refugio is closed. You can still call the taxi service and use it as a pickup point.
Good point…. Probably best advice is to get the taxi number from whenever she is staying the night before.

Use you cell phone to snap a photo of posted taxi numbers in bars and on sign posts and bulletin boards. I've even seen small posters with taxi contact numbers attached to trees.
