Hi Frank,I would like to take the alternate route (is there such a thing) from VdC to Rates, not via Arcos. Please could someone point me in the right direction. I would be leaving from the VdC metro station.
Thank you.
Thank you so much, PhilHi Frank,
There's a decent bit of info in this thread which includes a KMZ file to follow.
https://www.caminodesantiago.me/com...o-rates-river-or-aqueduct.74203/#post-1037497
Basically there's two routes - the river route and the aqueduct route.
I followed the acqueduct route earlier this month using the KMZ file in the thread.
It was fine, quiet roads etc and only one part I didn't like because it was more or less a flooded mud track due to heavy rain. I've noted in the thread where that began and how to avoid it in wet weather.
Hope this helps
Phil
Thank you!Hi Frank,
I took the same route. Please find my GPX file with the whole track to Rates ;-). Although it starts in Labruge, you can use it from where you start. Buen Camino!
