I like it! Someone has been suggesting to me that I walk the Vadiniense to Leon…

Do you build in any wiggle room in the way of an extra day or two for unforeseen delays, when you plan? Or do you accommodate this by factoring in some shorter days eg O Barco to A Rua, on the Invierno?

I normally walk 30 km a day on the road without any major restrictions. But yes, I have shorter stages so I can rest more.
Almost every weekend in Portugal, I go hiking in the mountains. I think this Camiño through the Picos de Europa will be great. The Camino de San Salvador was incredible for me, beautiful. I like do the Camiño without stress and noise.

I think this plan looks fantastic, I keep raving on here about how much I loved the Invierno. You planning on staying at the new albergue in A Pobra? Next time I walk it, I think I might rejig things and stay in the Diomondi albergue.

Yes, I would like to stay on the newer Albergue. I did this camino in Dezember 2022 and I have a lot of good memories. I slept in Diomondi Albergue, before the big downhill before Belesar.
