• Day 30: Rabanal to Molinaseca, part 2

    June 16, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F

    So much beauty!

    1. It’s amazing to me how the wildflowers growing along the side of the trail are as beautiful as any planned garden, complete with complementary colors.
    2. and 3. Towards the top
    4. Looking forward (westish?) from the top. The city on the left is Ponferrada, which I’ll reach tomorrow morning.
    5. So. Many. Hours. of this.
    6. The village of Riego de Ambrós is exceptionally picturesque. I didn’t stop here because the bars were uphill (and back down) plus extra mileage. I was grateful for the fountain there, though!
    7. Iglesia de San Nicolás de Bari in Molinaseca
    8. Ermita de Nuestra Señora de las Augustus’s in Molinaseca. I didn’t have the energy to explore either of these.
    9. Puente Romano in Molinaseca. I staggered over this to get into town.
    10. Molinaseca is also very pretty.
