Wisdom of the way

There is a type of rest/service area in Monton. Donativo. Lots of places to sit and a yoga space. I don't believe it is an overnight place. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, so, I don't know the name. They have a sign mentioning a podcast, wisdomoftheway.com.

Terra de Luz - Heaven sent

Do yourself a favour and stop by Terra de Luz on the way to Sarria. A little slice of heaven owned and run by Simon and in house residents. All sorts of fruit, veggies, breakfast cereals, too many goodies to list here. True Camino spirit here and donativo

Stop at the Donativo!

Such great vibes at the donativo at the end of town. Tons of fruit and snacks, and great coffee!! They have lots of comfy couches, a few guitar and other instruments, and even a yoga space to stretch out. Talk to the volunteers, they’re all amazing!
