    Hey all, I was wondering if camping in a tent was possible at all on the Camino Frances? Is it possible to find spots just outside cities to camp? Any info is greatly appreciated, Rob

    Camping on the Cami Sant Juame

    Bon dia! I've enjoyed reading the forums so far. I'm planning on walking my first camino from Barcelona, or Montserrat at least, starting the beginning of June. I understand this section is a road less travelled, with fewer albergues. Would it be an idea to bring a small tent?

    Camping Urrobi, 5ks-ish out of Roncesvalles?

    Anyone stopped here? http://www.campingurrobi.com/ I love swimming at the end of a walking day and it looks to have cabins, campsites and river swimming as well as a pool. On google maps it appears to be just off the main road from Ronces, past Burgete. I never noticed it as I walked thru the...

    Wild Camping on The Caminho Português - Allowed or Forbidden?

    So, I talked with some people here in the Forum in the last few months, and also in the Hotel where I work about doing wild camping in Portugal.

    Wild camping etiquette on the CdN?

    1. To get permission from the property owner do you just walk up to a house, knock, introduce yourself and ask permission to tent there for the night? (I'm not fluent but my Spanish is sufficient for short conversations like this.) 2. Is it rude to knock on the door of a private home during the...

    Camping gear on the Camino

    We have decided, after much deliberation, to take our tent when we do the Camino on our bikes. For various reasons really. One thing we would like to know from other campers is: should we carry a small stove with us in order to make tea, etc.? Also, I suspect that there is no shortage of eating...

    Hey all - I am planning on hiking the Camino del Norte (primitivo at the end) this August and want to camp the whole way. I read from posts years ago that albergues not in large cities let pilgrims pitch tents for free on the albergue property - is that true? Is there a camping guide to the...
