Have you walked into SdC on the Portugues route? I liked that last day’s walk far better than on the Frances, so if you haven’t done it before, I would encourage you to walk it. -

We walked the Coastal Route from Biona through A Ramallosa the day we headed to Vigo. The only part of the walk I didn’t care for was the industrial section on the southern side of Vigo into the historical center. Seemed long, monotonous, and not...

Yup! I used to think my rain coat was "all that", but now I swear by my Altus poncho. It is like wearing a jacket with sleeves that covers both you and your pack. I got mine in person in Pamplona last year at Caminoteca although Ivar has them on...

A general tip for the Stone and Water route that could also be relevant regarding weather is this: the route starts practically right next to the albergue in Armenteira and is wonderful right from the start. If you arrive in non-rainy weather but...

If you want to really treat yourself, my husband and I stayed at Casa Prado de Carballo in Armenteira. It is a couple miles off the Camino, but if you call them, they will come pick you up and deliver you back to the Camino in the morning. We...
