I know I can Google, but I am also interested to hear if anyone has a specific recommendation for a good dentist in Burgos. I am a few days out from there and seem to be developing a toothache so if it doesn’t resolve itself I will probably try to get it checked while I am there. Thanks
Hello, I'll be starting the Camino soon and my best option is to buy shoes in either Pamplona or SJPP. I will be leaving Pamplona on a Sunday at noon and arriving at SJPP around 2pm. My question is, are the sports stores open on Sunday in Pamplona, I'd be going in the morning before catching the...
For health reasons, I need to be able to have a small electric kettle to boil water in wherever I go. Where can I buy one in Irun? I can’t bring mine from home, voltage is different.
Hello from the Camino Portugues! A few days ago going through Pontevedra, we spotted a souvenir shop selling Estrella Galicia related merch - think t-shirts and hoodies, that type of thing. The shop was shut when we walked past and then we never ended up making it there the next morning as we...
I’ve been to a store 2-3 times in the past several years that has every sew on patch imaginable. Over 100 types with routes, distances and years. It’s a small store, still inside the city center less than a km from the cathedral. Does anyone know the store? It is not any of the ones within 100M...
Could someone who has walked the VA recently please tell me whether there are many / any shops in the _villages_ passed en route, and whether it is possible to buy small 300 gm gas cannisters with a screw-on connector in them? I spent some time in the region 10 years ago, and although I never...
I have to buy some gear, and outdoor stuff/supplies in Bilbao. In particular, need freeze-dried food packs, boil water and serve. Anyone suggest some places there? Places, big or small outfits, like Rei or Patagonia. Also, similar places in Santander? cheers.
Hi all! I am completing the GR65 or via Podiensis in a week (Navarrenx tomorrow) and spending two nights in SJPdP. Then starting the Camino Frances. I’m having some muscle issues in a shoulder and generally tight muscles all over- of course. If anyone knows of a massage therapist (sports...
Hi,
I’m in Sarria and my legs are sore after a lot of walking in the heat!!! I’d like to book a massage with a physiotherapist today.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

Hi
Arrive Pamplona 28 August and need to purchase hiking poles. I'm starting from SJPP on the 30th. Best to buy in Pamplona or SJPP?
Any recommendations from experienced pilgrims? This my first camino.
Gracias y Buen Camino !
Hi everyone,
Just completed my first Camino and wanted a tattoo to celebrate! I highly recommend Calipso Tattoo and Piercing Coruna. Julia was awesome and helped both my aunt and I create what worked for us. It was my aunts first tattoo!
Hi team,
Due to some unexpected achilles issues, I am looking to swap my Altras for Hoka One Ones here in Oviedo before I walk the Primitivo on Tuesday.
Can anyone direct me towards some shops in Oviedo that might sell Hokas?
The hospitalero has suggested De Ruta and Cavana. El Corte Ingles...
¡Hola peregrinos! I'll probably walk the Camino Inglés in late Augist. Afterward, I am thinking of camping for a few days in the Cíes Islands and will need a tent and ideally a sleeping mat. Wondering if there is somewhere in Santiago de Compostela offering free/cheap camping gear? Just need...
Can any one recommend an outdoor shop in Estella. I need to replace some walking trousers, following an accident in a tumble dryer (my fault)!!!! I will be passing through Estella on Monday and was hoping to try and buy a new pair. An Internet search has located a Decathlon but I wondered if...
Hi Everyone. I'm here now and in desperate need of some new hiking sandals. I currently have Teva Toachi sandals and am looking for something similar.
Any idea where I could go in Logrono to buy something suitable?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I leave in five days (newbie, Frances). This may sound like a silly question, but where exactly in Sarria can I buy a really good rain poncho? My local store is sold out of anything that will cover my pack. I am really short, barely 5 feet tall, so I need a very small size, but with proper...
