Rabanal del Camino

We climbed quite a bit today, even though it was a gradual incline. We can feel in the air, it will be cool this afternoon and cold tonight. Our cool Max sleeping bag liners will be put to the test for warmth for the first time!

The mountain ridge is much closer now. We were lucky with the weather today. Several periods of light rain, but no downpours! One more rainbow 🌈 was spotted.

After our coffee break we met David from Marion MA. He started his Caminoa few days ago in León!

We also met a couple from Holland who started walking today in Astorga, continuing their Camino started several years ago, walking two weeks at a time. Now they have a full month to walk to Santiago.

We cruised today, starting around 8:05, and finished just about 1:00 pm, 20.1 km in 5 hours with one break.

Tomorrow we will pass Cruz Ferro and later, Alto de Céréales, the highest elevation on the Camino!Read more
