[Gocamino] El camino

Yes, one can do the Camino on horseback. In October I saw a man riding a 
horse and then I noticed him one morning with a tent set up in the forest 
and his horse tied to a tree. On this same journey, I met a French couple 
who were filming a documentary about their journey from Brittany, with their 
one year old baby (who was conceived on the Camino during a previous 
pilgrimage), 2 donkeys, a goat, a dog, a cat and a tent. They had all their 
worldly pilgrim belongings stacked and tied onto the backs of the donkeys.

Maybe someone on the list serve could  tell you where to find out more 
information about travelling with a horse since not all refugio's are 
equiped for horses.
