The night was terrible. We had chosen such an uneven spot that everything hurt. And then I also had to assess and pack up the drama of the tarp that I had “broken” the night before. We quickly packed up our things to have breakfast a few meters away. In the Farout app, I had…
It was a real surprise: when we went to bed that evening, there wasn’t a single cloud in the sky, but the next morning we woke up with wet sleeping bags, surrounded by a mixture of mist and drizzle. Great, and on the second day – really unfavorable. Nevertheless, we packed our wet clothes and…
Today our journey began in Santa Clarita. After dropping off the rental car, we took a Lyft, a kind of cab. Our destination was a campsite near Acton, right on the trail. But there was a problem right at the start: there were two campsites on the same street and I had chosen the wrong…

The day started promisingly and we first walked past the monastery of San Salvador in Cornellana, which was built in the 11th century and is known for its tranquil atmosphere. It was a beautiful moment to see the historic…
A rollercoaster of emotions over the last few kilometers Today I realized that I like the Way of St. James less and less with each passing day. What once began as an adventure is increasingly turning into a kind of fever dream of restaurants, souvenir stalls and former pilgrims selling their books, shells and other…
It was hard to leave our cozy, comfy camping barrel the next morning and make our way to our destination for today, O Pedrouzo. The sky was cloudy again and the rain pelted down on our hoods as we walked along the road towards Arzúa. GPS data of the hike on the Camino Primitivo From…
We set off again from Melide in a stream of pilgrims after enjoying a delicious breakfast in a local restaurant. Our stage was relatively short at just 12 km and took us to just before Arzúa. I wanted to take it easy on my knee, which fortunately caused no further problems. GPS data of the…
