Astorga to Foncebadón

355 miles done. 145 to go.

Slept 11 hours last night. Guess my body needed it! Today was 16 miles, all uphill…but a steady uphill. And it was gorgeous… the trail was flanked by flowering plants and bushes, from blues, to purples, to white, to yellow. And the smell of lavender all along the route was fantastic. To my southwest view all day was a snow covered peak and as I ascended the trail the entire day, I ended right below the snow line in a little village with a fantastic albergue that I’m staying at tonight. The place is charming and the food was fantastic.Läs mer
