Hottest day's walk so far but 7.30 start made for cool and fresh air for the first half at least. Out of step with the hump of pilgrims in our wave so we walked alone quite a lot of the time. Arcos aЧитать далее

Via Viana "Oooohh Vianaaa" with amazing sculptures on the portal to the church in the center of the town like an early C12th graphic novel. Bumped into Monty again. Still wearing jeans, the goose.

To Viloria de Rioja
2 мая 2023 г., Испания

Burgos to Tardojos

Tardajos to Hontanas

Finally, the Meseta! Do do doooo

Hontanas lovely. HalfЧитать далее

To Calzedilla de la Cueza
10 мая 2023 г., Испания ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

Practicing the wisdomЧитать далее

Easy walk across the last of the Meseta.
Mostly straights from El Bugo Ranero, but lots of trees planted by the path along the way made it a pleasant walk.
Rather than miss the Eurovision party inЧитать далее
