    LIVE from the Camino A Swan Song?

    I walked the Inglés last week and didn't find it particularly busy at all, other than the last stage.

    It starts!

    Good luck! I am on it now, currently in Betanzos. Very pretty town too!

    Accommodation on Camino Ingles from Ferrol

    Bruma, assuming you stay there, is a potential red flag. It's a pinch point and popular stop as walkers from Ferrol and A Coruna converge there. It's a tiny village with one municipal albergue, one private albergue and one tiny private hostal.

    Making the most out of Inglés

    I'm walking the Ingles for the first time in a couple months and plan to walk the same amount of days and stops as andonius above, other than stopping in Bruma instead of Meson do Vento on day 3.

    Added it to my map. Thank you!

    Betanzos tortilla

    Did this place offer smaller portion size tortillas? Most restaurants seem to serve giant ones intended for two people.

    A Coruna to Betanzos

    Are there restaurants in Bentanzos that serve single size portions of these tortillas? This looks delicious but enormous, way more than I could eat.

    How much cash to bring?

    Thanks. My bank only allows two free ATM withdrawals a month, so I need to pace that accordingly on my trip.

    Getting From A Coruna (LCG) airport to Ferrol - Taxi VS Bus/Train

    You take the #4051 bus from the airport into A Coruna, getting off at the Alfonso Molina bus stop. Your landmark will be a gas station on your left side and it's about 20 minutes from the airport. After getting off the bus, walk across the grassy strip, where you will find the main bus station...

    How much cash to bring?

    I did a search in this sub-forum but couldn't find anything recent. How much cash should I bring for the Ingles? All of my pre-booked accommodations except one accept credit card. That one place charges 30 euros. I'm going to guess that most dining places along the camino take card with some...

    Help! Where to buy a new hat on Camino Ingles?

    Consider catching a bus or whatever to The Style Outlets near A Coruna Airport. It's a big mall.

    Camino Ingles - how immersive an experience have you found it?

    Possibly because very few walk from A Coruna. By the time you get to Bruma, you should meet up with other pilgrims.

    Camino Ingles - how immersive an experience have you found it?

    I'm walking the Ingles as my first camino ever later this year. My own concern is that I won't feel that sense of elation and accomplishment once I arrive in SdC as it's just a 5 day walk vs a 5 week walk on the Frances. Oh well, it is what it is.

    transporting of bags.

    Oh, I will also be staying at the Albergue San Lorenzo in Bruma. I didn't realize they didn't participate in the Correos backpack transfer. Did you have to make prior arrangements to have this other company transfer your pack or were you able to book them while you were at that albergue?

    Camino Ingles vs the Inca Trail

    Thank you so much! I'm really looking forward to my first Camino. I love a good, long walk. That climb to Dead Woman's Pass was something though, huh? A steep incline with no flat sections that kept going up and up for hours! It felt like it would never end!

    Camino Ingles vs the Inca Trail

    Thank you, everyone! I've looked at the elevation profiles for the Ingles. I've never walked it, but from my eyes, it doesn't look particularly strenuous from just looking at the data. Nothing compared to the Inca Trail, at least. But I've read loads of trip reports and a lot of people said that...

    Camino Ingles vs the Inca Trail

    I will be walking my first ever camino this September and have chosen the Camino Ingles. The Inca Trail is the only other multi-day hike I have ever done and is roughly the same length in terms of number of days. It was tough going at times, especially on day 2 (the climb to Dead Woman's Pass...

    Ferrol train station - arriving at midnight

    I'm taking an Iberia flight from Madrid to A Coruna, then taking the bus from A Coruna to Ferrol. There is a train that runs from Madrid to Ferrol, but its schedule doesn't work with mine.
