Day 30 Rabanal del Camino

Doesn’t appear that photos and writing can be sent together for some reason so I will now send separately
If I were to go on this trip again, I would spend more time in the attractive city of Astorga, to visit the Santa Marta Church, the original Roman walls, and the Cathedral museum. It’s a city set atop a steep ridge with a wide array of of historic buildings tightly packed inside its medieval walls.
Today, we set off on a 20 km jaunt towards the mountains and tomorrow we will be climbing to the highest point of the entire Camino. Overall, we had a good walk today, a gradual climb in some of our hottest weather so far (25-26 degrees). We’ve been warned that the weather here is unpredictable, but we’ve been lucky so far.
Twenty minutes after arriving at today’s hotel it poured raining.
Cathy anI have continued walking with the same couple from England today. A group of us are travelling with Mac Adventures, the company that arranged our hotels and baggage transfers, so I assume they use the same hotels from year to year.Läs mer
