The church is often locked up, but if you ask around for the key the locals are always happy to unlock it for pilgrims.

The Road

Between here and San Justo de la Vega there are no facilities, but a small kiosk run by pilgrims operates during the busier seasons. Just before the steep descent into San Justo de la Vega is the Cruceiro de Santo Toribio overlooking Astorga in the distance. From this vantage point, you can see the Cathedral of Astorga and the string of towns that dot the camino as it crosses the mountains ahead.

After walking along the Camino trail along the highway all day, it was such a blessed moment to find this private albergue. I fell into my plush bed with a thick comforter and napped for 2 hours! The place is beautiful in its simplicity, clean and managed by a caring and friendly hostess. The home cooked meal of lentil stew was nourishing and delicious! Just lovely!

The owner is a true delight. She’s so sweet and truly takes care of her guests. She runs it with her sister. Super clean. Good pilgrim meal. Definitely the place to stay in this town.

This place is a must to stay , the owner that runs the place is such a tiny, sweet, bubbly person. She makes you feel comfortable right from the get-go. I would highly recommend this place and her chicken burgers are amazing stay for the hospitality, the quiet rooms, the clean place to sleep, and the great food, and always the smiling hostess.

She’s doing it for love, not money. You can tell. This place is special!

This is one of the most relaxing and serene stops on the Camino. Great rooms and the owner has done a wonderful job of creating a mini-oasis with an eclectic vibe around an old courtyard.

I happens to stumble across a new Albergue in the town. The owner was fantastic and incredibly enthusiastic. I wish I got to stay here! I’m sad to say I didn’t get the name…

This is paradise in the middle of nowhere! Fruits, bread, coffee, water, fresh juice - everything you need to reharge your body. And beyond that - some mattresses and hammocks to rest from ups and downs!

I was planning on sleeping outside on a mat when I perchance met Michael fetching water. He offered me a mattress and food and drink. All on a donation basis. He lives for pilgrims. It's a magical place. Please leave him a Google review. The Camino constantly surprises and delights.
