Day 0: Miranda de Ebro
I'm finally here, ready to start walking! A huge thank you to @VNwalking for the virtual thread and all who contributed ideas and experiences! And to @caminka for the detailed guide and tracks shared on the forum. I'm both excited and a bit nervous to head out tomorrow and explore the area. I've copy & pasted relevant posts from the virtual thread and printed off a little guide for myself. All the information on ermitas, necrópolis, dólmenes etc. is much appreciated!
My plan is to take 8 days to Aguilar de Campoo where I'll join the offical Olvidado, taking in as much as I can en route.
I recently learned that you can "draw your own trail" on Wikiloc so I've used the tracks from @caminka mixed with some more recent Wikiloc tracks, other GR routes and VNWalking's ideas to create a few of my own stages. Whether or not they'll be passable remains to be seen It's a nice feature of Wikiloc for those who also use the app!
I should also note that the tourism office here in Miranda was very helpful! The gentleman there didn't really know what I was trying to do when I mentioned the Camino (but not the one to Burgos!) but went out of his way to give me maps, show me sattelite photos of some of where I'll walk tomorrow etc.
I know there's a few folks out there planning to walk this way this year so I'll update this thread as best I can.
Hasta mañana!!
