Los Barrios to El Pelayo

Los Barrios to El Pelayo, 30 km - Complejo Rural Huerta Grande

What a great day through the heart of the Parque Natural de Alcornocales! We had to ford a river this morning, running high because of all the rain. Great views of the Rock of Gibraltar and Africa unfolded as we made our way along the track high above Algeciras, the same one that we cycled in the opposite direction on the TA in 2008. A bonus was seeing cork cutters at work! A long detour at the end to the only shop we found open in El Pelayo made for a 30 km day.

We may walk on to Tarifa tomorrow without a rest day because Wednesday may be rainy.
