Should I go ahead with este sendero, I would have to use taxis for baggage transport, though, despite the expense. <br /><br /> If any readers have experience with this, could you comment?Victoria Hofferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540550302475109539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7841399249557747138.post-82761860813676730992018-10-02T15:11:39.856+01:002018-10-02T15:11:39.856+01:00Hi Victoria
Thank you so much for your kind comme...Hi Victoria<br /><br />Thank you so much for your kind comment<br /><br />To be honest I've never tried to send a bag ahead. There is no formal bag ahead service on the route so you would need to do it by taxi. Some of locations are a little remote, taxis would need to go a long way and it could get expensive. We carried out own stuff and got quite good a getting everything down to hardly anything at all. My wife was never carrying more than 5 kilos.<br /><br />Hope that helps<br /><br />JohnJohn Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03351092993224063387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7841399249557747138.post-26448946449463261102018-10-01T02:18:52.270+01:002018-10-01T02:18:52.270+01:00John, just starting to read your delightful blog a...John, just starting to read your delightful blog as I eagerly await arrival of your book. This walk looks enticing and definitely a possibility for me in 2019. A question: is it difficult to arrange transport of a suitcase on a daily basis?

I'm thinking about doing part of one of the GR routes and this one is on the list. However, I can't walk 40km in one day. I don't want to buy a guide book until I've narrowed down my choices. Is it possible to do 15 or 20km days on this route and still be within range of towns with albergues, hostels, hotels, casa rurales, etc?Musingsfromthelastfrontierhttp://musingsfromthelastfrontier.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7841399249557747138.post-5686409858135799212013-03-05T08:07:23.093+00:002013-03-05T08:07:23.093+00:00Hi John.

Now at home and you walking, not dancing, in the rain.<br />The hostel in Cervera de Pisuerga was Hostal Peña Labra where we were treated like the family as I have been a customer from 40 years.Juan Holgadohttp://www.jaholgado.comnoreply@blogger.com
