August 2022 - Camino de Madrid

[WalkingGeo]

Bendiceme Padre porque no he caminado, It has been 4 years since my last Camino! Seriously though, I had planned to walk in 2020 (to keep me on a every other year schedule that started in 2016) and we all know, what happened to that schedule!! Ahh, Finally! Commitment made , airfare purchased , backpack dusted off , training and now, beginning to wrap my head around the Route to Santiago, Muxia & Finisterre. After a short look at Camino de Madrid forum, I am surprised at the relatively small number of posts for walking from Madrid in the 3rd quarter of 2022. So, if you are planning to walk this route anytime from July to September, Please Reply back with a With your County of Origin & Start Date! ----- Let me be the 1st----- USA - 8/17/2022


From wherever you start and however long it takes you, may you all have a
Buen Camino!!

I am planning to start september 26th from from Madrid.
But I saw some albergues are closed. Wich means I will have to stay more often in hostals/pensions.
Buen Camino!

My son and I walked my first Camino on the Frances from SJdP and the first friend we made was a Wonderful Guy from Belgium and by coincidence his name was Guy!! Very interesting Pilgrim, he spoke 6 Languages and had a great sense of humor!

I hope you have a fruitful journey!

Buen Camino

Hola Caroline,

I have noticed that Gronze.com may be more up to date on Albergues and other places to rest your head. Also they have a Beta version that you can use on your phone as a GPS, showing the route and your location. I can't speak for the accuracy as I will be trying it out myself in August. If it's something you're interested in you can message me in early September and I'll gladly give you my thoughts.

Buen Camino

Hey - I just finished the Camino Madrid - arrived to Sahagun 4 days ago. It was different ! Very different. Not many albergues at all until Segovia, then one per day maybe two. Usually had them all myself for €5. It was not without its challenges in terms of food and water. Very, very, very rural after Segovia please be prepared. I met maybe 5 or 6 pilgrims the entire 3 weeks or thereabouts. Gronze wasn’t that accurate- some places were closed as the hospitalero was away etc I’d suggest stay with Ray and Rosa or at least WhatsApp them. They saved me twice with info on open accommodation. Good luck!

Ooo thanks, on a walk now, trying not bump into trash cans. If you don’t mind, I’ll message you later for some info.

I'm planning to walk the Madrid late September. Would also like to chat with others who know more about this route. How do I access the Madrid forum? jv

How do I access the Madrid forum?

You are in the Madrid forum now - at the very top of the thread you can see the "breadcrumbs" showing the hierarchy and how far deep you are. If you click on "ES Camino de Madrid" at the top of the thread (not on the image below), you will see all the threads in that forum, including some good ones that are pinned to the top.


You can view all of the forums here (or by clicking on the Casa Ivar image/logo at the top of your screen). Scroll down to see all of the forums and sub-forums.
