- We walked the Winter Way in the cold of Winter! We started the Camino de Santiago de Invierno (Winter Way) in Ponferrada on February 27th, 2023. In this video we walk from Puente de Domingo Flórez, through the Sil River Valley to Quiroga, and over the foothills to Monforte de Lemos.
This is our first time walking the Camino De Invierno, and our first time hiking the Camino in winter. We hiked the Camino del Norte in Summer 2019 and the Camino Frances in Fall 2017. We packed ultralight bags for all of our journeys.

HAHAHA. Yup!
Great video You look like fun bunch
Thanks. We try!
You two are the great team. 👍👍👍
Thanks so much!
and very funny
I walked the winter way last August alone for 9 days (an average of 29.xx km pef day). Slept at Puente de Domingo Florez, Villamartin de Valdeorras, Quiroga, Monforte de Lemos, Chantada, Rodeiro, A Laxe, and Ponte Ulla.
Were more places open in the summertime? We loved the route, too.
@@DaysWeSpendyes, i did not find it difficult to stay at night in albergues. My first day was tough, from Ponferrada to Puente de Dominggo Florez.
@@ayongkot Wow, that's a really long first day! We broke that one up since we wanted time to see Las Medulas.
What a great way to explore Spain (or any country for that matter). A pie!
We agree! It's our favorite way to see a place.
Wonderful video. I've been following you for a few days and I'm really enjoying it. Well, the road between Quiroga and Monforte de Lemos can be covered by 3 routes, which one did you choose? In the video I couldn't identify why between Quiroga and Monforte de Lemos I didn't notice mention of villages. Sorry if it was my fault. Thank you very much for sharing your experiences with us.
Thanks so much! As far as we know, there’s only one main route between Quiroga and Monforte. We passed through A Ponte, A Pobra do Brollón (which has a bar, but no hotels/albergues), Ceriexa, and Reigada.
Some people break up this stage by staying in a casa rural off the Camino. The owners pick up and drop off in A Pobra.
@@DaysWeSpend Hi Guys! Thanks for replying. I wanted to clarify the reason for my question. I'm researching the winter path and found a site with information I thought was important. In order not to make the text too long, I will post the link at the end of the message and if anyone is interested, you can go there. It's a lot of information. Well, in terms of possibilities, I saw that there are 3 options between Quiroga and Monforte de Lemos. 1- The route promoted by the city's politicians, 2- the old route (where the river Sil was crossed by boat) and 3- the route proposed by the administrator of the site. Route 1 is 38.3 km long and Route 3 is 31 km long, in addition to being, in his opinion, shorter, prettier and more similar to Route 2, the oldest. I hope you excuse my English and that the information is useful. Here's the link I referred to www.venancioguntinas.com/pt/alternativaetapa5. Once again thank you so much for your videos.
Wow! We've never heard of these alternatives. Definitely going to give this website a good read through. We followed the route in the Wise Pilgrim app (36 km). We didn't cross the Rio Sil. The day after, we crossed the Miño by bridge.
What a team! Lainey, you're a champ. PS I don't know if you knew this, but you have a big fan in Australia haha. And I was sooo excited today because I found the black Croc sandals for my Camino in June. Yeah baby!!
Thanks so much. I'm pretty proud of myself. :)
So excited for you and the crocs!!! You'll love them for the Camino. Buen Camino.
Lainey
It is not a famous path but is very beatiful
One of the most beautiful!
I love your videos
Thank you!
Hello,thank you so much for your videos! I just came back from camino Frances and planing to do the Camino de invierno next february. Pls , could you give me some advice about : weather and if is save, about sinals ...cause i will be alone! Thank u so much! Buen Camino❤
Thanks for watching! the Invierno is very safe. In February it will be cold and maybe rainy. Here's our packing list for winter: ruclips.net/video/VHlP_vwYhTw/видео.html
Maybe add some rain pants to this list. It rains more in February than in March.
@@DaysWeSpend thank you so much!! Buen Camino!!
So beautiful, but Cristina says, "Jamas en el Invierno!
Haha. We really enjoyed the cooler weather! Way less sweat. lol
The obvious question is: Why did the cow cross the road? 😃 Beautiful video. I'm proud of you, too.
Aww, thanks so much. That's a good question! :) We're glad you liked the video.
i think, you would love the via de la plata or the primitivo. you are a great coupel and the video is very entertaining and the photos amazing. buen camino, greetings from the eastern sea in stralsund
Thanks so much! We’re are planning our Primitivo for very soon! Vía de la Plata is a future goal. 😀
you could do the way of the lighthouses along the coast of Galicia
Oooh, great idea! We'll keep that in mind for later this year :)
Hi, thanks for the nice videos. I am planning to go in September. How would you rate the difficulty? I did Camino Portugues last year, so this will be my second one. It looks like the 5ths stage is the most difficult one. Also, you mention a lack of services... how much food should one bring? Are there stages where there are no shops etc.?
Oh, how fun! It's a really nice Camino, but quite difficult. There are a couple really long days and some really steep ascents and descents. But the views of the Sil River are worth it. We always brought food for snacks and often brought lunch. Make sure to consult your guidebook the day before so that you have time to buy food if needed. We also walked in March and many places weren't open for the season, yet.
@@DaysWeSpend Right, thanks for info. :) I think I am in relatively good shape but don't want to overestimate myself. :D I like September because it's not the main season but the weather should still be good (and hot, I guess). You guys seemed to be freezing a bit at some point.
Just take your time on the steep sections. The old medieval cart roads are no joke!
In March, we had some really really cold mornings. But the days were lovely!
The conspicuous lack of other human beings in this videos has me thinking that you're not really on Earth are you? Goddammit if you haven't terraformed Mars... YOU TERRAFORMED MARS DIDN'T YOU! I knew it... I knew you guys would beat Elon Musk there! This is why RUclips is so great!
HAHAHA. You discovered our secret.
