El Colmenar to Jimena de la Frontera

El Colmenar to Jimena de la Frontera, 25 km - Casa Henrietta

Well... It was a mistake to walk today, but we made it to Jimena de la Frontera. It took us 10.5 hours of walking with only one 15 minute break for lunch! The forecast was for morning showers followed by sunshine, but instead, it rained almost all day. We knew we needed to walk fast to cover the 25 km before dark, so we left at first light at 8:15, but the mud was slowed us way down, and we just kept getting colder and more tired, but we knew we couldn't stop to rest or there would be no margin for error. As it was, we arrived at 6:45 - after the sun had set! I have never walked so many hours without a break. Definitely a rest day tomorrow!Lue lisää
