    Dangerous dog between Triacastela and Sarria (2019)

    Hi Whilst walking from Sarria to Portomarin this year (on my first day) I was on the verge of being attacked by a large dog.

    Advice

    Its the Camino Frances from Sarria. I'm attempting to do it in 4 days and wish to knock 9km off (Sarria to Peruscallo) if possible. Google states Peruscallo to Santiago is 103.4Km. My main concern is the transport links from the places stated as my wife will be with me (but not walking)...
