Hi! I just wanted to make note of some cautions that are being reported on a Facebook Camino Invierno page about the condition of the trail in some areas. I know there are some on here who may be heading out soon! There's been a lot of rain in the area and here are some concerns that have been posted:
24 Dec. - "before reaching the Belesar bridge towards Chantada." - the post shows a picture of minor slope failure and rocks across the path.
23 Dec. - "Después del puente Taboada, se cayó la 1/2 de la calzada romana. El puente Taboada y la calzada romana está entre Lalín y Silleda." Translation: After the Taboada bridge, 1/2 of the Roman road fell. The Taboada bridge and the Roman road is between Lalín and Silleda.
The poster states that they were able to pass on the remaining road but are not sure of the trail condition. They notified the Guardia Civil and closest town hall.
21 Dec. - Rodeiro to Lalin "Aviso (21/12/2022): Un poco después del KM 73,737 el rio sobrepasa el puente. El puente está lleno de ramas, troncos, todo. Muy peligroso. Evita el río. En cuanto llegas al KM 73,737, ve a la izquierda y se juntará con el camino." Translation: A little after KM 73,737 the river exceeds the bridge. The bridge is full of branches, logs, everything. Very dangerous. Avoid the river. As soon as you get to KM 73,737, go left and it will join the road.
This was a few days ago now so hopefully the river levels have gone down. But in rainy weather, good to know a safer way around!
This same walker also found the trail covered in water in some areas. Passable, but the pictures look like careful footing is needed!
Safe travels to all on the Invierno now and soon!
