Anyone who has walked with me knows I love swimming. Normally my verging on obsessive search for pools and swimming spots starts fairly early on each day, with enquiries made to farmers, bar owners, hospitaleros and even on occasion the police.
I am walking the Via De La Plata April into May, I know there are a number of French Way swimming threads, does anyone have any similar information for the Plata?
The public outdoor pools will probably not be open yet (Spanish people always tell me they open 'in summer' which usually means June- September). I am quite happy with anything I can get, indoor, outdoor or reasonably hygienic rivers and lakes. I do know there are hot springs at Baños de Montemayor which I am extremely excited about. I also know there are few reservoirs, but they can sometimes be unsafe to swim in.
Many thanks
