Salas to Tineo

A steady uphill climb most of the day on nice shady trails. It was a very nice approach to Tineo which is built on the side of a hill, and has great views. I suspect that Tineo was hit hard by Covid because there is a plaque dedicated to Covid victims on the way into town.

Hydrangeas grow like crazy here. I've even seen them off the trail, practically growing wild.

I stayed in the albergue section of the Palacio de Meras hotel, which was very nice.

Friday night in tiny Tineo was hopping, because it was high school graduation night. A boisterous group gathered at the restaurant where we had dinner.

Edited to add: when we left town in the morning the graduation group was still partying at the bar on the main plaza.Lue lisää
