[QUOTE="Dilbin, post: 1060734, member: 87725"] Unfortunately it's a bit late now but the highest point on the San Salvador is close to 1568 metres. Hi. Having recently being attacked and bitten by a dog while training to do this route I was, like yourself fearful and anxious setting off on this route last week. However the magic of the Camino once again took hold and off I went on my own for the week. I took 6 days to give myself time to admire its beauty. On the third day I exited a village and two very large dogs appeared in the distance and ran towards me barking. They were not chained and for whatever reason I kept walking towards them and raised my stick saying "Allez" and they just stood there looking at me. It must be a Camino thing because all fear left me. At home however the psychological affect of being bitten was terrible and made my local walks very difficult indeed. As for livestock I walked through cattle on 3/4 occasions and even had to go off the path twice as they were gathered on the actual path. Most Spaniah cows have horns and only once did I see a bull. My only suggestion is to treat it like any other Camino and enjoy your Journey. The only difference I found on the Salvador was its solitude. 4 pilgrims all week and only met them in the evenings at the Albergues. Bizarrely when I reached Oviedo I met a lot of Pilgrims who had just walked the same route but didn't meet any of them during the way. As always its your journey and whichever route you take may your God be with you and Buen Camino, Daniel. [/QUOTE]
