Camino Norte, Day 32 => Mondoñedo

Easy day with 10 miles and 1300’ ascent, 1150’ descent. Hard day up a steep mountain tomorrow.

We’re so glad we decided to take an Easy day. Montonedo is a small town with a beautiful cathedral. We also had time for a 3-course “menu” lunch that included a bottle of wine for 15 euros each. Loved the “turbo vino blanco” - a Galacian wine unfiltered fruity and slightly bubbly. (wonder if we could find it in the USA). Tried the “Tarta de Santiago” for desert -famous at the end of a Camino. Loved it. Sometimes it’s nice to just have Type 1 fun instead of always Type 2.

The photos/videos only partially capture the beauty of the hills of Galicia. And perfect weather today for a fall walk.Read more
