    My husband and I are planning on walking the Camino Finisterre & Muxía at the end of this year, starting on 28th December. We’ll be walking from Santiago, but we can’t decide if we should walk to Finisterre first, or to Muxía. From what I’ve...

    Today Ivar posted general info re challenges in securing beds in Santiago de Compostela. He mentioned Ed Sheeran coming sometime, but was not sure when. I just found the info: I love his music, and would really love to see him in Spain...

    Hi @saara kinnunen, I was going to say “welcome to the forum” but then I noticed you have been a member since 2016. I guess you’re used to members humour. Flying into Madrid in October the train is likely your best solution for the onward...
