Hello fellow pilgrims, I am currently working on my Bachelor thesis, which focuses on the Camino de Invierno. To support my research, I need insights from other pilgrims about their experiences on the Camino de Invierno. It would be amazing if... -

Anyone looking for a bit of creepy or heebie jeebies stay in winter on the Invierno in Diomondi in the room with your bed over the graves. There were 2 of us in the entire albergue and I’m sure we took turns keeping one eye open. -

I do most of my Camino walking in winter and often on less-travelled routes. Quite often I find I have the albergue to myself. I've always considered it a luxury and I can't recall ever feeling any anxiety about it. My favourite experience was on...

That movie was the impetus for my wife and I to walk the Camino. unfortunately she succumbed to a decades long fight with breast cancer. However? She will be joining me for every step next year. Congratulations by the way, for completing your...

Thank you so much @towanda1961, that's super helpful! I've learned to expect the extremes, too, with climate crisis. When we walked the Via Francigena last April in Tuscany, I was expecting cooler temps and we had some days around 35C and...

Well I guess I'd better chime in here after being talked up so much! 🙈 I walked in April so I don't have any specific January tips, but... The Alentejo and Algarve (the areas of the RV) are a completely different animal from Galicia. Others...

Year to year can change but I've been along the Fisherman's Trail for several days January 2023 and the days were mostly sunny. I've also walked from Santiago do Cacem to Porto Covo and continued south to the lighthouse in March back in 2016 and...

towanda1961 replied to the thread Fisherman's Trail from Porto Covo (north > south) in January 7ish Days?.Hi. I live along the Fisherman’s Trail and January can be a beautiful time here with warm days and sunny skies. Of course anything is possible, but we’ve had loads of rain and wind in April some years! Definitely book ahead, but come and enjoy...

towanda1961 reacted to peregrina2000's post in the thread Camino de Invierno up by 42% over same time last year with Like.
It’s fun to watch these numbers. 2800 for approximately 10 months works out to 280 a month, so it’s not surprising that we continue to walk alone more or less. This year was my first Invierno in which I actually encountered other pilgrims...

I've recounted how, on the last night of my Camino Ingles in May 2018, I lost both my British passport and my credencial - fortunately after getting my Compostela. I reported both losses to the authorities and even checked with the Pilgrim...
