I loved the flowers on this home in Belorado.

The Camino tracked this road for a few kilometers, and then paralleled the highway until Belorado.

Nothing was open in Castildelgado except for a tiny bakery.

Day 14: Belorado

23. syyskuuta 2022, Espanja ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

Today we’re feeling the grind of back-to-back hiking days. A foot injury prompted Allan to send his backpack ahead with mine this morning, but it was still painful for him to walk 23 1/2 kilometers to our albergue in Belorado.

Much of today’s route paralleled a busy highway, so traffic noise was a frequent companion, too.

On the plus side, today’s routes took us through several small villages where we stopped for coffees and sparkling waters. We also left Rioja and entered León y Castilla—and haven’t seen a vineyard since.

Walking in to Belorado, we were charmed by several large murals.

After waiting in line for a bit to check in at Albergue Cuatro Cantones, we showered, dropped off our basket of dirty laundry to be washed and dried, and strolled up the street for a light bite to eat at a local bar. We’ll have a communal dinner at the albergue at 7:30 tonight.

Tomorrow, we’ll walk 27 1/2 kilometers to Agés, with much of that being uphill. We expect to have many rest stops along the Way!Lue lisää
