Backpack transport on Camino Olvidado

I am thinking about walking the Camino Olvidado with my husband. I like to walk long distances with my backpack. Last year I did Frances till Leon, San Salvador and Primitivo. And…I am addicted...

New pilgrim albergue in Zalla

This is great news! If my calculations are right, it’s about 27 km from Bilbao. And it’s a very flat stage. Casa Camino Antiguo Two dorm rooms with shared bath and 6 bunks each. Plus one...

    Thread 'Random question on a lazy afternoon'

    If you walked the Viejo from Pamplona to Aguilar de Campoo to join the Olvidado, and then later joined the Salvador at Buiza, that would only give you about 172km / 7 stages on the Olvidado itself. Would that be 'enough' Olvidado or would it be a shame to miss out on the stages before Aguilar and after Buiza? I have the impression that this middle section is the best of the Olvidado's mountain stages anyway, so maybe it is enough. Thoughts? Or maybe a better way to put it: to reach Aguilar...

    Thread 'Stage 10A vs. 10B on the Olvidado'

    Quick question about the stage from Guardo - Puente Almuhey: There is an option 10A (por San Pedro de Cansoles) with 16.7km and an option 10B with 31.7km (por Velilla del Río Carrión).

    Thread 'Detailed planning thread for the Camino Olvidado'

    As promised, today I am starting a planning thread for the Camino Olvidado. There are many good sources for the Olvidado. Ender’s guide in English. The Camino Olvidado website with stages, tracks, and pictures. This forum’s sub-forum on the Olvidado. Another Olvidado website, in Spanish, which is connected somehow to Adolfo in Nava de Ordunte, I think (but am not sure). I noticed that Susanna‘s and my feeble attempt at a guide in 2014 is linked on the site, and I think that Adolfo must...
