La Virgen del Camino si chiama così per la miracolosa visione della Vergine da parte di un pastore del posto. Tale visione venne successivamente tradotta in scultura da diversi artisti. Una di esse si trova nella chiesa moderna e un’altra nella cattedrale di León (nella cappella dove si tiene la messa del giorno).

Le sculture sono meravigliose e assomigliano a La Piedad di Michelangelo, con l’unica evidente differenza che Gesù è rivolto verso il basso.

This Donativo is open and in full force. Awesome hosts who really care and a super clean and modern albergue. When I was there the pilgrims and hospitalero’s made a fantastic meal together at a community table. Great stories, great food, great albergue!

It's about the second cafe on the main road. Great breakfast stop. Giant croissant filled with runny egg, bacon, lettuce, mayo plus freshly squeezed orange juice.

Sensational breakfast here - excellent coffee, fresh orange juice and the most delicious toast with fresh cheese, honey and nuts, and also toast with tomato and olive oil. 10/10 recommend.

What an amazing place, friendly people, and across from one of the most beautiful catholic churches I’ve ever seen. Buen Camino.

El Virgen del Camino might have more cafes per capita than any other town we have seen.

There are at least 6 or 7 along the Camino and we saw another 3 or more on a side street.

So if you're leaving León early and want a stop for coffee/desayuno, this may be a perfect town in which to stop.
