Providing the rural area around Soria of food and necessities

[SabsP]

Yesterday I read an article in my local newspaper of La Exclusiva. They provide the rural villages around Soria of food and all other necessities. They can provide meds from the pharmacy or arrange the paperwork.

This area , like many others in Spain, is rapidly getting depopulated. The people that stay there are mostly older ones.

First one is a link of all the villages where the van stops. Don't know if any of them is on a Camino ruta?

It's a great initiative aspecialy for the older people.
Now they can stay in there village other wise they had to move to a larger village with shops.

Sounds a great scheme. Many of the villages up there on the lovely Camino Castilliano-Aragonés, especially to the east of Soria, are dying, some are already dead.

Ruta A on your link goes through Abejar, Fuensaúco, Fuentetecha and Pozalmuro, which are all on the camino (Pozalmuro, permanent population c36, has a bar and an albergue, the only facilities (other than fuentes) in the 59km between Ágreda and Soria).

Thank you for the info.
