Linares de la Sierra

Today we followed a trail from Aracena to a small town Linares de La Sierra. It is a circular walk starting on the Camino Linares route. It's a bit different from yesterday as the path is much more rocky and the area a bit drier. Also very beautiful and peaceful, once again only passing a few other walkers. Forests of cork trees and what we think were chestnut trees as we walked The trail is marked as 11.4 km, but in the end, we did about 20 as our accommodation is a little distance from the start. The town is very small ( less than 300) and they seemed to be preparing for some festival as they were putting up platforms and cleaning the old public laundry area (lavendería pública) and white washing it. We had seen lavendería pública on the map and went in search of the loo but were mistaken!!. Tomorrow is our last day and night before we head to Osuna for 3 nights. Still deciding on tomorrow's route.Read more
