Molinaseca es un destino popular de fin de semana para los ponferradinos, que hacen el corto trayecto en coche para nadar en el maldito río Maruelo. La orilla del río es un excelente lugar para nadar, refrescarse y mezclarse.

Fiesta

Si estás en Molinaseca el 17 de agosto, pide prestado o roba un cubo y prepárate para la lucha por el agua en toda la ciudad. El día anterior celebra San Roque y al día siguiente se celebra la Fiesta de las Angustias con una procesión más tradicional por la ciudad.

The Road

Entre Molinaseca y Ponferrada estarás casi exclusivamente en la acera adyacente a la carretera. A tres kilómetros del centro de Molinaseca se parte el camino. El camino técnicamente gira a la izquierda en la curva en la carretera y pasa por Campo en el camino a Ponferrada. Girar a la derecha para seguir la carretera le llevará a Ponferrada de la misma manera y es un camino más corto hasta el albergue municipal.

We found an atm. Leaving town on the western side. Across from the Santiago statue at the centro cívico.

The town wakes up late. But there is a churreria that has good coffee. It is on the main/front road in town. Casa Morrisco. Excellent tostada

Stayed there only one night and it was terrific. We arrived too late for them to prepare a dinner meal ( They need a certain amount of people to have time to prepare). However, breakfast the next morning was fantastic and the hosts are gracious. The bath towels were large and fluffy, which I really appreciated!

Every low-cost dorm is full.

The Cruz de Ferro was moving for us, even a bit emotionally draining. Then the path down from the Alta took a toll on knees and ankles, so we took a rest day. Great call! We stayed at Casa San Nicolas and all the wonderful reviews are all true.

The place is spotless, the food (breakfast and dinner) are superb and the hosts are truly amazing. It was a great blessing to stay with them.

Tim, who opens the church, is a man of great insight. Take a few minutes to chat with him. This town was truly an oasis of rest in the midst of the Camino.

This was one of our favorite stops on the Camino because of the lovely owners and the wonderful Brazilian dinner they prepared for the guests! Breakfast was also very nice. A special spot to be sure!
