Day 33 - Cacabelos to Vega de Valcarce

It was a long but enjoyable day. We went about 18 miles today(somewhat unintentionally) as we were supposed to save our legs for a climb tomorrow. However, we like to add complexity to our adventures.

We took 2 alternative routes today. One was through the wine country and was an easy walk....the other was a climb of about 2400 feet in elevation gain and about 12 km. We were the only pilgrims on that route as we saw no one in about 4 hours.

Ended up in a cute little village for the night. Tomorrow, we climb one of the bigger climbs on the camino. After today, it should be a breeze.Read more
