    Walking the Rota Vicentina / Fishermans trail in October

    We walked north to south in June 2019: https://www.pamnjeff.com/Coast-to-Coast/fishermens-trail/ The sand is very fine, like powder and our running shoes absorbed it through the breathable tops. I recommend more solid shoes, maybe full leather boots. Anyway it's a great walk.

    Camino Augusta/Via de la Plata

    Joe, We walked Via Augusta in September 2015 and found it a bit boring. In places the Way was not well marked and we depended on GPS. We stayed in hotels/hostals. Here is our website http://pamnjeff.com/andalucia/category/via-augusta/
