Hi all. I am starting from Ponferrada on the 11th October. I will be walking from Villafranca to Las Herrias on the 12th which is national Spain day. Will restaurants etc be open? Are there festivities in Ponferrada that day? Maybe I can delay to see those? Tia.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-

I was in Ponferrada on Oct. 12, 2019, and they waived the entrance fee to the castle because of the holiday! The castle is worth seeing if you have time. If there were festivals, we didn’t see them. We ate in a hotel restaurant across the street from the castle entrance; I think there were some bars open, too.

Nothing much going on in general. There's a military parade in Madrid, but no festivals elsewhere. Expect shops to be closed on the 12th, but restaurants should be open. It's a long bank holiday weekend for many in Spain. Many people use the opportunity to travel. This could mean accommodations being fuller than expected throughout the weekend.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
