The Amigos from Almeria have issued a warning for high water in the Nacimiento River and to follow the road between Alboloduy and Abla. When I was there last April it was completely dry, but now there is a lot of water. See the picture of what is normally the Camino.

Wow indeed! I have also seen incredible overflowing arroyos along the Plata over the last few days. Stay safe everyone!

It was completely dry in October last year, but the locals said the Nacimento was generally full in April and May. I can imagine there would be problems between Aboloduy and Abla and also around Hunejas. Still the road is an alternative. Thanks for the notice Carel. LT I see you are out walking again. Buen Camino to both.

Hueneja is on a branch of the Nacimiento so if there are problems this will depend on where the heavy rain was. By the way, there is a new route for the last four or five kilometers into Hueneja which avoids the worst walking on the stony river bed of the Hueneja river.

I walked the Mozarabe in 2013 in February had almost daily problems with over flowing streams - rivers.
