My map shows the path goes near the river but then turns and goes along the river, crosses over and goes back up the other side. Bit like a horse shoe.
Hi Marty,

Thanks for your information. It will be a great help to other pilgrims.
What dates did you walk?

nice to know someone else will be walking. I arrive to Malaga (all going well) on 21 April.
Will probably head off 23rd. I'm used to long days so may catch up with you.
Thanks for letting me know.
Enjoy your walk.

I used Maps.me .... a great help... and continue to use it everywhere I travel.
I also had Gerald Kelly book on my phone along with the VDLP Premium App you can download.
Between Gerald Kelly that I had downloaded on my phone & the VDLP...
Maybe as C Clearly explained.... my wife may have been bitten but is not alergic. This makes sense, as we have walked 11 Caminos and I have had bed bugs 3 times and she hasnt ( but maybe she has been bitten as suggested above and just hasnt known ?)
