[QUOTE="LTfit, post: 1152237, member: 8594"] Today June 21 Day 5 (stage 6) Arija - Olea Wikiloc says 33.87 km. Soon after Arija we enter Cantabria. There are two parts to today's walk: Part 1 involved almost exactly 20 km along a provincial highway meandering around the [I]Embalse del Ebro. [/I]Asphalt all the way, at times along a red pedestrian pathway but usually along the shoulder. The only positive point was that there was little traffic and that it was not raining although very misty. [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_065332.jpg"]149801[/ATTACH] [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_065337.jpg"]149802[/ATTACH] You walk past quite a few hamlets but no luck with bars, not even a gas station. [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_070834.jpg"]149803[/ATTACH] [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_082440.jpg"]149804[/ATTACH] This church tower in Villanueva de las Rozas is all that's left from a submerged church. It's also known as [I]La Catedral de los Peces.[/I] Many towns were destroyed and/or moved when the dam was constructed. [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_082809.jpg"]149805[/ATTACH] Lots of these little towns had crochet banners hanging on fences etc. [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_085800.jpg"]149807[/ATTACH] [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_085729.jpg"]149808[/ATTACH] The dam was inaugurated in 1952, construction from 1921-1945. Prisoners during the Civil War were used to construct the dam. This plaque commemorates their efforts and suffering. [ATTACH alt="IMG_20230621_101201.jpg"]149806[/ATTACH] Last picture while circling the dam. Part 2 to follow. [/QUOTE]
