LIVE from the Camino Counting pilgrims on the Via Augusta (Nov. 2024)

Time of past OR future Camino
Ingles, F+M, Salvador, Norte, V.Serr., Fr.Leopoldo
I have to admit, the title is probably a little too optimistic. It is highly unlikely to meet any pilgrims at all in Andalusia in December. On my last three winter caminos in Andalusia (Via Serrana, Camino Estrecho, Camino de Fray Leopoldo) I came across a grand total of one (!) pilgrim. I will probably rather count cows, dogs or telegraph poles.

I have two non-contiguous weeks available for Caminos in November/December and am dedicating myself first to the Via Augusta, which I have also had my eye on in previous years. I expect long flat stretches without the slightest incline, a rather monotonous landscape, but interesting places and towns. As far as I know, there are no albergues, so I have booked hotels and private accommodation.

I start on Monday from Seville heading south. I'm walking this route in reverse because I'd like to have the stage along the Atlantic as the highlight at the end. As I'm totally out of shape, I've opted for a particularly lazy option. I will hike three of the six stages with a day pack and take the train to my accommodation in Seville or Jerez in the evening.

I am happy to post my experiences here and look forward to suggestions and information from the forum experts. After all, the Via Augusta has a sub-forum here and appears more frequently in the comments than my first three Andalusian Caminos.
