Volunteering as hospitaleros

[Badgerbag]

Hi all,

I enjoyed my first Camino this spring so much that I should like to “give something back” by volunteering as a hospitalero, hopefully next year. As a Spanish speaker I think I would be more useful in Spain, but don’t mind which Camino route it is.

Other than the albergues at Gaucelmo And Miraz, run by the CSJ in the U.K. which I understand are already fully staffed for 2025, does anyone know of any others that might be looking for volunteers?

I agree, contacting HosVol would be the way to go.

The albergue at Güemes on the Norte is a possibility. I have a friend who volunteered there for three weeks last year.
