Hi Evelyn
There is a Albergue in RubiĂŁes. Un maned but very good. The Caminho passes on the backside where there is a smal red gate. There is a restaurant aprox. 1km furter down the road and a small grocery 1km furter down.
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
Thanks guys,
New question:
I want to call New Zealand from Portugal a couple of times
And from Spain for that matter
Any of you peregrinos know which card is cheap, easliy avaliable and WORKS
(either from mobile phone or from telephone booth)??
Leaving in 3 weeks from now so thinking a few details through
You are kind. The Albergue is outwardly very nice but has too many bunks too close together and the services are cramped. The place is designed to look super but is not actually very good. The steward gave the impression that guests are a bit of a menace. The restaurant is OK (but expensive if you are on a tight budget / eastern European) The cafe a kilometer further down is well run and has a grocery, the lady in charge was one of the few people who took the trouble to help me improve my Portugese. That said the hostel was good enough and Redondela was worse.
