Laure,Well, take a look at the guide I have linked to, because it has all the practical information you need.
So, it looks like you would take the Vdlp from Sevilla to Mérida, and then walk the Mozárabe ”backwards” to Almería. I would recommend a GPS, but this is entirely do-able. I assume you have found plenty of information on the Via de la Plata from Sevilla to Mérida. Gronze lists about 9 days for Sevilla to Mérida.https://www.gronze.com/via-plata I walked from Almería to Mérida in 21 days, you might want to add a few if you don’t like long stages, but the guide gives plenty of options for shorter stages.
That would be a really great walk, IMO!
Buen camino, Laurie
Hi, Jeff,Laure,
I’m sorry to have missed the zoom meeting about the Mozarabe route so this may have been covered. My question is what season did you walk from Almeria to Merida in 21 days. The elevations look pretty challenging to Granada and I would guess there is snow part of the year. I’ve seen the post here about 20/25 K days of average to Merida but from past experience I know that kilometers are only a piece of the over all puzzle.
