    Kevin O'Brien 2018 guide to the Lana, in English

    Wow Kevin - this guide is outstanding. I'm hoping to walk the Ruta de la Lana with my son this spring. Depending on how much time I can get off work, I may need to start from Cuenca. Having got most of my information from Spanish sites, mostly outdated - it was a real gift to get your updates...

    Highlight Sections (???)

    Hi All - I was wondering if you could give me the sections of the via de la plata that stand out in your mind as highlights - Seville to Zafra?, Salamanca to Zamora?, Puebla de Sanabria to Gudina? - etc. (I'm just pulling those out of my hat) - and maybe a description as to why. Towns? -...

    Skye, Thanks for the additional info. It's very helpful - and I'll load it into the mix of my decision making. Now, one of my biggest concerns is the plummeting dollar value against the euro - ouch! John P.
