Beware: Fuentes Not Working in Casa de los Pinos and San Clemente

Just a heads up for some who may rely on fuentes for water refills (I know that I do). The fuentes (public water fountains) are not working in Casa de los Pinos and San Clemente. The Asociacion de Amigos del Camino de Santiago Comunidad Valenciana told me this before I left. In fact they said no fuentes until Mora. With rising temperatures higher than forecast it's no joke without water.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-

I don’t know if the fuentes were working when I walked, but I do remember several times on the Levante when I asked people for water. And usually they offered not only water, but also a soft drink or a beer! And sometimes a piece of fruit or a snack. This is a camino with so few peregrinos that I’ve never sensed that I was being a pest. And truthfully, there are a lot of lonely people in these small places who are only too glad to chat.
