Geez, rent a car.Desperate to Cycle the Vdlp / Sanabres one last time in , hopefully , September i am thinking of possibly driving to Seville or Cadiz with my newly acquired (second hand) folding bike which i bought just for this pilgrimage . One of my plans is to drive down to Seville , find car parking for a month , cycle to Santiago then catch the bus back to Seville . At the moment i am just researching the possibilities such as parking , bus back to Seville etc .
I think there is a long term car park near the airport but i believe they require the car keys to be left with them .
I would like to hear from anyone who has left their car in Seville or indeed Cadiz to do the pilgrimage to Santiago .
Thanks in advance .
Why???Geez, rent a car.
The long term car park at the airport in Seville would be perfect for you. I am talking about the Aena car park (P2) at the airport. The secret is to apply to be a socio (member) - it is free and it gets you about a 60% discount. No need to leave your keys or any nonsense like that. The Aena web-site has an English option but if you need any more info or help with anything then just drop me a line.Desperate to Cycle the Vdlp / Sanabres one last time in , hopefully , September i am thinking of possibly driving to Seville or Cadiz with my newly acquired (second hand) folding bike which i bought just for this pilgrimage .

You didn’t say where you are driving from, but I would think renting a car for one day or even taking the train, would be cheaper than paying for car storage but I my be wrong.Why???
I wonder if Ronald is thinking just of a hired car from your home, jony jony, and returning the car at the Seville airport or wherever, cycling your route, and then hiring another car to return home???Ronald H ......Why rent a car , drive it for 2/3 days to Spain then leave it parked for a month , then drive it back to the u k in another 2/3 days , ? if that is what you are saying .
Yes, thank you!!I wonder if Ronald is thinking just of a hired car from your home, jony jony, and returning the car at the Seville airport or wherever, cycling your route, and then hiring another car to return home???
True. I thought you were from Spain.So , leave an English registered rental car in Spain on my outward journey and then a Spanish registered rental car in the U K ? I think this would be prohibitively expensive just to save 100 euros or so on parking , but thanks for your reply .
I'm glad to hear you are planning another ride!i would prefer to start In Cadiz ( along the Via Augusta , i believe )and i am sure there are several camp sites around that area .
Have you considered parking at Santiago and taking a train back to your desired start point? This one is at the airport but I think there are others. 69 Euros for a month plus does transfers. https://parkingsantiago.es/en/Desperate to Cycle the Vdlp / Sanabres one last time in , hopefully , September i am thinking of possibly driving to Seville or Cadiz with my newly acquired (second hand) folding bike which i bought just for this pilgrimage .

@jony jony, I always have fun imagining your rides! Have you seen this video about cycling the Via Augusta and Via de la Plata starting in Cadiz? It won't play in the US, but maybe it will for you...?Islandwalker.....once again i have to thank you for your most helpful links to the Transandalus's trails and i will study them closely .
