Calzada de Bejar to Fuenterobles

Distance: 20 km / 12 mi


On the road to Fuenterobles
Leaving town was this typical,  for this area,  peregrino memorial.
Typical path of the El Camino

Watering hole for pilgrims
One of the fellow pilgrims bought me my birthday beer. 


The albergue in Fuenterobles is one of the more famous lay overs.  The parish priest,  Don Blas, has taken a special interest in pilgrims. The parish maintains the local albergue and it is of high quality.  The grounds are beautiful in a very rustic way.  The staff,  all volunteers,  are most social.  The dinner last night was fantastic. We had lentil soup,  salad and stacked ribs,  followed by flan.
