Camino De Santiago Day 25 Leon to Hospital De Orbigo

Camino De Santiago Day 25 Leon to Hospital De Orbigo

Camino De Santiago Day 25 Leon to Hospital De Orbigo Camino De Santiago day 25 walking from the city of Leon to Hospital De Orbigo. Today we walked 30km along the Santiago trail. It wasn’t the prettiest walk and most of it was beside avery busy road, with trucks whizzing past every few seconds. Not fun but worth it to get to Albergue Verde in Hospital De Orbigo. It is a beautiful Albergue with really cool people there. It is…

Day 22 Walking The Camino De Santiago – Moratinos to Bercianos de Real Camino

Day 22 Walking The Camino De Santiago – Moratinos to Bercianos de Real Camino We woke up to a white winter wonderland this morning on The Camino De Santiago, or maybe we had stumbled headfirst into Narnia. Either way it all seemed very magical. The snow just stopped falling as we left ALbergue st Bruno in Moratinos. We had a lovely comfortable stay there and got to enjoy the underfloor heating, which kept us nice and cosy through out the…

We didn’t pass through any towns or villages along the way, other than one deserted village. It is times like this when it is best to…

Day 19 Walking The Camino De Santiago – Castrojeriz to Poblacion

Day 19 Walking The Camino De Santiago – Castrojeriz to Poblacion Wow, what a day this was! The Camino De Santiago really does have a mind of it’s own and I can see it testing us with all sorts of obstacles and challenges. The weather was unbelievable today, literally the biggest shifts in weather patterns that I have ever seen in one day. The Albergue in Castrojeriz was beautiful, it felt like a yoga centre and the hospitalero was a…

Compostela Pilgrimage – Santo Domingo Day 12

Compostela Pilgrimage – Santo Domingo Day 12

Our compostela pilgrimage continues on from Najera to Santo Domingo today. Although there were times when it was close to ending, we are now roughly a third of the way to Santiago de compostela. I believe that we are in the Rioja region of Spain now after leaving Navarre and the terrain and landscape is changing and becoming more rugged, like one would see in a cowboy movie. We are finding the weather to be getting colder and colder each…
