Villamartin de Valdeorras to Soldón

The albergue was a little spooky last night, and I did have a couple of strange dreams. But I woke up ready to walk.

I started and finished the day next to the Rio Sil, but much of the time I was far above it.

It was an easy walk to A Rua, then up into the hills. This is wine country - Ribiera Sacra. I walked past many vineyards today.

Along one part of the path (along a quiet paved road) there were several pieces of art attached to trees and posts, then a village with similar art. Apparently the artist lives in the village, where there was even more art.

The winery there (Alvaredos-Hobbs) provides a pilgrim rest stop. It was so welcome! I was just thinking I would like an apple, and there it was!Les mer
