Between the monumento peregrino on the Alto del Perdon and Uterga is a solitary tree along the path. Beneath that lonely tree is a humble bench. Does anybody have a picture of that bench? I have tried to describe this scene to several people and I regret not having a picture of it to show them. Thanks.

Hi there,

This is the only photo I have.

It was taken in May (2013) last year.

Beneath those resting Peregrinos is the bench !!

I remember that bench and the tree! Twas a very welcome, however brief, respite from the heat of the day.
