Obrigado Nadine pelas informações e belas imagens!! Estou planejando fazer esse Camino em setembro de 2025. Um forte abraço , daqui do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil!
Hi Nadine. I have commented many times. I did finish my Frances route on the 20th May and enjoyed it. I was thinking that I'd stop in Leon and do this and the Primitovo but decided that completing the Frances in full was my path this time. I'm actually thinking about doing this route and the Primitovo at teh end of this month, June.
I'm so happy to hear that you finished the Frances! I hope that it was a really good time... and if you're able to go back for the San Salvador and Primitivo, that would be amazing!! It's truly SUCH a great combo, and just stunningly beautiful. Keep me posted!
Nadine, thanks for sharing your journey. I've enjoyed watching in preparation for my camino...which starts tomorrow! I'm in Burgos tonight and can't believe I'm finally here 🙂
Yes, very easy to carry!! Bread/baguettes tend to get stale quickly, but these tortillas also stay soft/relatively fresh for awhile, which is a bonus :)
Thanks for all your video’s. As stated previously, I’m looking for something to do after completing the Ingles at the end of September and I want to avoid the crowds on the CF and ups and downs of the Primitive.
Maybe consider the Camino de Madrid? I haven't walked it but from what I know, I think it has less ups and downs than other routes (and I think a lot of it is fairly flat), it would be about 12 or 13 stages, and I think it now has decent pilgrim infrastructure. Starts in Madrid, so it would be easy to get to! And ends in Sahagun, on the Camino Francés, which is just a short hop from Léon so you'll have good transport options at the end as well. Just a thought!
@NadineWalks thanks for the suggestion. I'm starting to look at the Madrid. Looks like 3 days of 300-600m, mostly up, but yes, the rest looks fairly level. Temps in Oct, looks like around 70 degrees. This one might work. Thanks
Oh, so much memories from the San Salavdor!!! The best one! I hope you stay in Bonduenos! It's the most beautiful places in the all Caminos. When i was in Ss it was very crowded. With 2 group of young guys. Because of this I walk the 3 day 39 km to Bonduenos. But it was worth it!!! 💞 ❤️
@@NadineWalks oh ,yes ! It was a hard day, but when we arrive......and we se all that amazing stuff in that heavenly place.....you know the feeling, I'm sure!
Nadine Hi. Great video. I am going to watch the rest of your Salvador route. I will be doing the Camino towards April end 2024, start in SJPP and then stopping in Leon to do Salvador. Then Primitivo. How did you find the Salvador relative to services and language barriers?
Definitely less services than other routes; depending how you break up the stages you may not find an open bar/restaurant during the stage (though I think for my 6-day walk, there was some place to stop for a break on every stage). But some advance planning, or at least an idea about the next day's stage is really important- there are a couple spots where you need to arrange a meal (call/whatsapp to let them know you'd like dinner, for instance, otherwise you might miss out). It's not difficult to figure out, but it DOES require a little more attention than other routes! I always carried something to eat for lunch in case I didn't pass anything open, and you'll want to take advantage of an open grocery store. Gronze.com is a favorite resource, which lists villages/towns and their services. It also notes where you need to call in advance to book a meal (I also remember the albergues listing this information for the stage ahead) I hope that somewhat helps- it's a fabulous route!
Great walk. Enjoyed watching your journey and detour to Oviedo via Sn Salvador. Gave us an idea when we do the CF the 2nd time to take this route. Just a quick query if you don’t mind, are you using a gimbal cos your video looks so steady even while walking?
I think veering north at Leon is a great option for those walking the CF a second time! And I don't use anything to keep my filming steady- it's just my phone and my hand (so thank you for commenting that the video is steady! I try hard but sometimes it gets a little bumpy!)

Oh so exciting to be about to walk the Camino!! Enjoy it as much as you can!
I like how you do the tortillas! great idea and easy to carry!!

WOW a 39km day to Benduenos!! That’s intense and amazing, I’m sure it was an amazing feeling to arrive at that albergue!
@@NadineWalks oh ,yes ! It was a hard day, but when we arrive......and we se all that amazing stuff in that heavenly place.....you know the feeling, I'm sure!
What a beautiful walk inspiring me to walk it next year. You not having a coffee stop in that town😂 big risk.
Enjoy watching your video’s .
Haha I know, BIG risk!! And I usually stop whenever I can!
I’m about to set off for this route! I’m curious about the junctions, don’t want to get lost! Thanks Nadine, buen Camino!

One other question, how was access to water?
Definitely less services than other routes; depending how you break up the stages you may not find an open bar/restaurant during the stage (though I think for my 6-day walk, there was some place to stop for a break on every stage).

You could probably write a book with how many of the different paths you have taken 😆
I actually DID think about writing a little book about this walk…
Cool. The reason why I will never try the Camino, despite I would like it, is because I wouln'd be able to share my room with more people.
You don’t have to stay in communal accommodation. It costs more of course, but you can get private rooms with private bathrooms all along the way.
Great videos. Can I ask you in what month did you walk the Camino de San Salvador?
