Grañon, Grañon, oh my dear Grañon again.

[Pingüigrino]

Well friends, I can happy and proudly said that I'll start my sixth time volunteering in St. John the Babtist albergue in Gañon from next October the16th, to October the 31th.
If you decided to stay and rest a day there, you'll be welcome.
If simply want to use the facilities, have a cup of coffee, or just say hi, you'll be welcome too.
The albergue will be warm, the facilities clean, and the hospitaleros happy to help you.

Lucky you! Grañón is my all time favorite albergue as both a pilgrim and a volunteer hospitalera

If if they would ever accept dogs U would volunteer there again in a flash!

I have never stayed in Grañon, but have heard wonderful things from those who have. I will stay there next April.
Buen Camino

Grañon is so special. When I arrived just over a year ago on October 8th, my friend told me he had volunteered us to cook the pilgrim meal. I nearly strangled him but it was the most wonderful experience. So many people volunteered to help and the spirit and warmth of the place seemed to permeate everyone. Grañon and Zabaldika were our favourite albergues on the Camino Francés…

I stayed at Granon once, on my way through on my first camino. I had read Brierley's remark that the albergue at Granon was not for anyone who had spent the previous night in Santo Domingo and walked only the short distance to Granon. I ignored it. I had come far enough, from western Canada, to feel entitled to spend a night at this famous albergue. The next time that I walked through, it was closed, and I was very glad that I had stayed there once.
