a ten-day route, please?

[Deke]

Preparing for a assignment--early April in Spain on the Camino di Santiago trail. for those familiar with the pilgrimage, can you recommend a route with diverse topography and interchanges between nature and man-made? We have just 10 days to photograph, so we're hoping for a route that covers 100-150 miles. any advice/suggestions are enormously appreciated.

Ponferrada to Santiago. You will get one day to loosen your muscles, then you head up the hills! You will get vineyards, canyons, mountains, and the green of Galicia.

Deke:

I think it depends on what you want out of this experience. Do you want to end up in Santiago? There is definitely a diverse topography from mountains and seascapes to farmland and vineyards. There are also a great deal of Architectural and historical points of interest. Some additional definition of what you are looking for might help some of us in formulating a response.

Ultreya,
Joe

Agree with Falcon I did from Ponferrada in September, was wonderful!
