Camino 2022 - Camino Frances October to November - The Meseta - Part 4
The Meseta was the part of the Camino that worried me the most. I wasn't sure if we had enough time to walk the whole thing. Our initial plan was to ride a bike, to save a few days. However, I only learned to ride a bike last summer, and my skills are a joke :P. So we decided to walk.
I hope this video helps show some of the challenges of walking the Meseta. It is flat, but please don't underestimate it. I think the flatness is what makes it challenging. The distances to the next towns, plays tricks with your mind.
I also forgot to mention this in the video but, my feet, knees and calves, suffered the most in this part of the Camino. It might be because it's always the same muscles used. Where as uphills and downhills allows you to shift to different muscle groups.
Still I was happy to have the privilege to walk this part of the Camino Frances. It really is an important part of the challenge of walking to Santiago.

Camino - Leon To Santiago
มุมมอง 1.9K7 ปีที่แล้ว
Instagram @amateurist Our second time on the Camino de Santiago. Walking from Leon to Santiago May 5 - May 17. So close to taking a taxi at Villafranca, but we took our time, and pushed on. I Cannot wait to go back to go back and walk all the way to Muxia.
Very helpful and honest series of videos.
Love wind turbines, we have lots in Scotland 😀
Fabulous 😀, going back again this year in May doing the Via da Plata, can't wait.
Lovely video ❤
La Meseta no se puede recorrer en Julio y Agosto . Hace demasiado calor y poca sombra. Todo son campos de cereales .
Could you tell us some more about the weather during october to november? Thank you so much! Great video!
I loved your video and all the beautiful close up animals you filmed (the border patrol, cows ordering @ the window & los muchos gatos) haha. I'm planning to return to complete the Camino Norte this October but wonder if I'll see many other hikers & if some of the alberges will be closed. Granted you were on the busier route, but did you see any places closed on your journey?
Im planning to walk from Oct 14 - Nov 9th. Any suggestions on clothing? Do i need long sleeves and medium weight jacket? Or just a waterproof thin windbreaker would suffice.
What was the weather like in October? Temperature? I'm planning to walk from Octber 14 - Nov 10. Any suggestions on clothing?
Hi, thanks for this video. We’ll do Camino from Sarria for 5 days starting Oct 21, 2023z. In your experience, did it rain much during that time? Thanks
Part 5 .... pleeeease :-)
are you asians ? am doing it by 2025 right now am training physically i might start from St James Pied de Port thanks
how long is that from your origin ? thanks
My husband and I want to do the Camino next September and October. We planned to it a few years ago but Covid intervened.
I hate to be that guy, but when can we expect the next part?
WAITING FOR PART 5
do you really have to walk too early in the dark thanks. ?
Hi is there a bus from Roncevalles to Pamplona ? and from there on i’ll walk or take another bus to Leon or Burgos ? 😊 Thanks am planning to do Camino but with a combination of bus and walk except when i reach Sarria when i have to walk until Santiago Thanks
I’m really enjoying your videos. Is there a part 5?
I loved the Meseta- the lighting was magical to me. 😊
Beautiful journey! Thanks for sharing!
All the cats 🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈
Hi i have some questions regarding the weather, clothing, etc.. and if the Pyrénées route was open. What was the weather like and what clothing did you have? Im staring October 14th.
The weather was great! We only experienced a lot more rain when we entered Galicia. But all the way from St. Jean to Leon there wasn't much rain. We did get extreme wind while we were on the Meseta. We started Oct. 8th and the Pyrenees route was open, with lots of pilgrims crossing. The albergue in Orrisson was also open :) I posted a packing list on the description of the video below, in case you're interested :) th-cam.com/video/Nj1rNaHhGBM/w-d-xo.html
Done that industrial walk into Burgos, a killer! Next time around I chose the alternative route along the river, oh my goodness what a difference!!
yes one of our other pilgrim friends mentioned that they took that route too. Next time I hope we can find it :) I love the first stage leading to Burgos
beautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing your experience
Great video series!
I walked through Sahagun on October 16, 2022 and the church for the halfway certificate was shut then also. I sympathize with how you felt, but glad you pushed through!
lol yes, we woke up early to reach the church in Sahagun before lunch. But lucky our camino friends let us know we could get the half way cert in the info. centre :)
Hello when will you upload the next part to the trip? Keen to see it all.thank you
Sorry it's taken such a long time to work through the last videos. We had to move cities and it's taken up more time than i thought :P
@@avendanoable no worries understand! Planning the walk same time you guys travelled wanted to see the end of your travels. Thank you. Will look out for it when its up. Cheers Mickey
Beautiful video
Thank you for taking us on this trip with you. You are a really nice couple and the voice sounds extremely sympathetic. 🙃 Nice footage, good sound, thanks! Greetings from Germany Sascha
thank you so much for the kind comment :)
Fantastic journey. I wish I had been there . know, please share your thoughts and suggestions
I did my walked last year, birthday present Porto to Santiago… most wonderful feeling. I will be doing SJPD this coming May 23, again for my birthday,,, Lourdes to Pomplona. Then when I retired I will do Pomplona to Santiago
oh wow your walk is coming up soon :) I wish you Buen Camino. We are planning on walking Porto to Santiago this year. Would you recommend the coastal or inland route?
So Nice Your Films ❤
Curious if you will uploading the rest of your Camino videos.
Yes sorry its taken so long to get the last videos up. We've been busy moving cities, but I hope to finally finish editing soon :)
@@avendanoable Any news when we can possibly expect the next part to arrive? Looking forward to continue the journey with you.
Muy interesantes reflexiones, gracias. 🙂🇪🇸
I got my certificate at the municipal albergue in the centre of town now, June 2022. They've changed it. They should put a notice up.....love
Nice Video that bring me back to My Camino in 2021 ❤!
I love your husband’s dancing. You have a gentle soul, it shows when you stop to feed the cats. Real nice. I’m planning my Camino for April-May 2024. I can’t wait.
Hi Carmen thank you so much! I wish Buen Camino! 2024 with be a magical year :)
So soryy you didn't enjoy the meseta. I actually liked it. Have done it twice. But you either love it or hate it. LOL
Thank you so much for sharing this. I walked the camino in Octobre, it is amazing to remember all this places! Best from Munich
Can you pleasee advise me on how is the weather in October? I am going from Leon to Santiago at the beginning of October ☺️☺️🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@user-mx7kk7pw9cfor me the weather in October was perfect not to warm (only in the desert) and not to many rain and less pilgrims! Perfect time to go!
Beautiful video and music. What is artist and the songs you selected? The were perfect!
I think I met you on this part of Camino, After Villafranca Montes de Orca
Hi! Yes we took a picture with you and Pietro, it was raining and the trail was muddy :) Where did you walk to?
To Leon. Had only 20 days off this time. But my wife and I plan to go back next year and go from Leon.
You guys are the cutest!! Your videos are to the point and honest and appreciate that. I walked 218km with a friend in 2018 from SJPP and had to skip quite a bit (train and taxied) due to time constraints. I had anticipated walking the full Camino in 2022, but alas, life intervened. I was pretty excited to know you walked in October. I only have 3 weeks and will walk from SJPP beginning first week in October for 16 days and end wherever I end. We walked 3/27 - 4/13 in 2018. It looks like you guys were caught in the weather transition from fall to winter with the wind. I live in Montana, which has similar elevation and weather as Spain. Thanks for sharing. It has helped to solidify my choice to walk in the fall. Looking forward to watching the rest of your Camino.
Thank you for enjoying the videos. Fall is really our favourite time to walk. I hope you get to walk the Camino again soon! It's wonderful that you goto to experience parts of it in 2018. It's hard to find time when life gets busy, but it's also nice to take the leap and just go for it!
WOW! Another great video! You guys are crushing it. long days with lots of Km...Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks so much! The long days are hard but always feels amazing at the end of the day :)
Thanks for the really nice movies. Desperately waiting for the next part 🙂If you are looking for other long hikes -- maybe consider the Camino del Norte. Very different from the Frances.
Thank you so much! i'm working hard on getting the next video out. I've heard a lot about Camino del Norte. I hope one day we'll get to walk it. The Primitivo looks interesting too!
Shhhhh.... 😄😄😄
You guys are pretty hardcore. Doing 31-34 kms, and starting before sunrise? Nuts! How do you like the downhill to Hornillos and Hontanas? Pretty steep, eh? Like you said, where's the town? Then it's right below you! I had to pause before braving downhill towards Hornillos. Emilio Esteves' son married the daughter of the owner of Casa Sol A Sol in Hornillos. As you know, Emilio Esteves produced the movie "The Way" that popularized the Camino even more. At Albergue Orion in Castrojeriz, we had Korean Bibimbap , a nice break from the usual pilgrims' meal. It was a nice surprise cultural lesson for most pilgrims. My horizon due to my neck injury is only about 20 feet max but I understand what you said about the seemingly endless meseta . My kids got tired each time I asked, "are we there yet?" Despite your long walks, it is good to see that you guys are safe and having a great time doing your Camino. Cheers, and can't wait to watch your next episode.
I've heard this, some people do skip the meset a. Some who are short of time. There's a UK TV on the Camino and they skip it out. I've heard too that some skip it out if they have done it once.
Hi Mildred. Is it generally safe to walk alone as a female? As for the transport, can I have my stuff transported everyday? My only concern is I have mild scoliosis and might strain my back from carrying loads.
Luggage transports are available throughout the entire Camino. I met several women walking alone, all said they felt very safe throughout. Buen Camino
We walked with several female solo prilgrims that walked from St. Jean to Santiago. They stayed in albergues and donativos and didn't have any problems. The both finished safe and happy! As for bag transport, it is available all throughout the Camino Frances. All the Albergues and hostels we stayed in are familiar with the service. We used Jacotrans and Transporte and communicated through Whatsapp.
@@avendanoable thank you so much you guys! I’m kinda anxious since I read some assault incidents of women but hopefully these are really isolated cases.
You two are adorable!!
Buen Camino (Summer 2019 😎)
Buen Camino :)
