Two new Albergues on the Primitivo.

[Isca-camigo]

I am on a Facebook group for the Primitivo and I have recently seen posts for two new albergues, one in Paladin which is 21.5km after Oviedo, and another new one for Borres https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...FjAYegQIBxAC&usg=AOvVaw3n9htjqpQwqGF9QACO0RAi this is not the new one which has opened in Samblismo but is being reported as Borres.

Buen Camino

Thanks for the information. I am starting to walk from Oviedo on the 14 May. Which Primitivo FB page is the information on?

My sister and I will be starting the Primitivo from Oviedo on May 12. Perhaps we will see you along the way. Been Camino.

The Facebook page was one which Ray and Rosa ( Manzaneres El Real) have set up, they have set up a few for different routes and I got invited on because I follow their main website.

Fantastic! Buen Camino . I walked it in June last year and am walking with a friend who has never walked a Camino before.

Steve and Jenny Hi, I start from Oviedo on May 13. I”ll be carrying a dark green 28L Osprey backpack & fluorescent green visor. May our paths meet, Buen Camino. Aymarah

 

[jennysa]

Buen Camino to you as well. Lets hope our paths meet. I am carrying an ancient orange 35 L Deuter with a South African badge on the back.

Hi to Jennysa , el cascayal and Steve900hiker. My colleague and I are setting off from Oviedo on monday 13th. Hope to meet you en route! You won't miss us - two cheerful old Brits.
I understand that Grado is effectively closed on mondays so we think we should pack some food for first night/breakfast. And looking forward to meeting the famous Domingo.....

 

[jennysa]

I guess it depends on how fast/slow we all walk as to whether we meet up. You say 'Grado' closed ? Please post something about our now famous Domingo when you get there so I can pick it up for the 14th? I hope that we will meet up but if not, Buen Camino! It IS

 

[RichTea]

Yes, I have read somewhere that Grado has a market day Sunday but all the shops then close on Monday. So we are planning to add a few snacks at Oviedo just in case.

Rich Tea, Hola! There are many bars and bakeries in Grado, hope they are not all closed at the same time . Hope to see you on the path. It’s so close. Buen Camino! Aymarah
