Hi Ivar


I’m starting the Camino Francis on April 23 from St. Jean –Roncesvalles-Santiago-.Finisterre. I hope to finish around the 1st week in June. After the walk I would like to visit Toledo and possibly Segovia as they are close to Madrid Where I will be taking a train to. I am wondering what sites I should take in and if there are “cheap “ places to stay.

I wouldn’t feel right staying in the private hostels geared to pilgrims as I at this time would be more of a tourist than a pilgrim. Any suggestions out there as what to see and where to stay.



Thanks Soumie
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Try Hostal Sol C/Azacanes 8 in Toledo; Duermevela Hostal Calle de los Gascos 7, Segovia; both highly recommended on the Hostalworld website.

Before the Camino: Your Pocket Guide to Prepare Your Body and Mind for the Camino
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Hi, Soumie,
If you're on a budget, I'd recommend the Albergue Los Pascuales in Toledo. I walked the Camino Levante last year and it goes through Toledo. We stayed at the Albergue Los Pascuales. It's not only for pilgrims, so you would certainly be welcome. It is in a great location, really very central in the historic center, very clean, nice facilities, pretty bad breakfast, and overall a great deal for 12 or 13 euros! https://www.alberguelospascuales.co...k=edit&cid[0]=1&id=1&liste=67&Itemid=&lang=en

Buen camino, Laurie

Thank you so much for your help. Sounds like a great place and a good deal. I will check out the website. Lots of planing but I'm getting excited about going. 1st. Camino so I'm a newbie. Come on April 23.

You will try and get to Muxia ...yes.
Buen Camino ,

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Thanks for your input to my post. If time permits and if my feet are still working I may try to get to Muxia as I will be only about a days journey or so away before I head to Madrid.

Thanks
