    What did you love best about walking la Plata?

    Lovely. It is as boring and captivating as the well known meseta is. Open spaces provoking quiet and inspiring times that let you switch off from reality and break away. Something in between from the busy frances or the portuguese to those other lesser trodden paths like mozarabe, lana or catalan.

    Detailed planning for the Camino Sanabres, March-April 2020

    Great idea to take that ride to Monforte, a nice town and just a stone’s throw away from Orense. A local told me that it was a shame but due to railway issues this days the town had fallen somewhat into decay. Apparently prior to that fact it used to be even a livelier town. Anyway, nice place...

    I have been checking a bit about your region in Western Australia, as I just knew very little about it, just Perth, and envious of what appears to be a nice and somewhat unspoilt area on the seaside. Take care of yourselves.

    I don’t hope so. 😲 🐺 Surely our brave and virtual pilgrim is having some rest to gain the necessary strength to tackle the final stretch of the sanabres. Anyway, you’re right, as we are looking forward to knowing any further on this lovely adventure. ❤

    Nice virtual journey. Have you considered heading south from A Gudina and hike the southern branch of the sanabres via Verin? This alternate route merges with the portuguese interior and also rejoins the zamorano that split earlier from VdP in Zamora. Long stage first day up to Verin, from...

    So did I, oddly enough. 😊 I recall all those remarks in the thread, even so, also got confused and mixed up albergues and towns. :rolleyes: That's me, so no confinement to blame. Anyway, excited at your next input from… Granja tomorrow?

    Detailed planning for the Camino Sanabres, March-April 2020

    I am the steady tortoise when walking, so applaud your relaxed schedule.😊 Also decided to head up to the castle where I was able to soak in the quietness of this kind of haunting historical site, as the stunning views over the river. Definitely a worthwhile detour. Hope you enjoy your stay at...

    Detailed planning for the Camino Sanabres, March-April 2020

    Good initiative! In time of crisis necessity is the mother of invention. 💪 Loved Zamora. I also wanted to rest overnight, so I decided to stay in a fancy lodging, nice, a bit pricey though. I just wandered along the old quarter in no particular direction. Later in the evening enjoyed a cold...

    Sanabres in the spring

    I walked this leg of the Sanabres about five years ago. Sad to know that the monastery in Allariz run by the cloistered nuns is no longer operative. Anyway, the town is a picturesque spot not to miss. I stayed in Verin, nice town with an outstanding albergue. Next day I had my break in...
