Stage 25 - From Villafranca del Bierzo to O Cebreiro |
||||||
| Übersetzung aus dem Englischen von Verena Moser. |
 There are two routes from here - the scenic high-level route and the easier road route. The signs on the house tend to lead you to the road route |
 The split yellow arrow on the pavement is the only indication of the route dividing - I missed it the first time |
 A steep climb out of the town |
 ..and it goes on and on uphill |
 Looking back at Villafranca |
 A French pilgrim who had walked from Le Puy |
 The new motorway far below with the scars made constructing it |
 (New camera deciding to be artistic in black-and-white) |
 The top in sight at last |
 |
 |
 A personal waymark |
 Descending through chestnut groves |
 |
 |
 Yellow arrows on the post and on the road. The very minor road goes in long hairpins with the Camino taking a shorter route |
 First view of Trabadelo at the foot of the mountain |
 Very well signed at the road crossing |
 Entrance to village |
 Old roof |
 Meson as Callelas which gave me a very good meal even though it was a bit early |
 Old and new in the village |
 An old house with two balconies jettied out |
 A more elaborate stone roof with a dormer |
 The camino runs alongside the road for a bit. |
 All the traffic now goes on the motorway so it is very quiet |
 Waymark |
 One pair of boots which never got to Santiago! |
 A beer stall put out of business by the motorway |
 The river Valcerce accompanies the camino for much of the day |
 The old road through the village of La Portela |
 Saying goodbye to the N-VI, now just a country road anyway |
 One never escapes from politics - some people in Bierzo do not want to be part of Galicia, some people in Leon do not want to be part of Castile, etc, etc |
 An empty house for sale |
 The maker of staffs for pilgrims |
 Street scene with motorway bridge halfway up to the sky |
 Meson Las Rocas in Vego de Valcarce |
 |
 Landscape with distant motorway bridge |
 |
 |
 Herrerías: Spanish pilgrims at the fountain |
 Cyclists to the right, walkers to the left to start the long ascent up to O Cebreiro |
 More shade in the late afternoon |
 Shady walk uphill through the woods |
 Steep ascent |
 Traffic jam on the Camino - cows going back to pasture |
 The new refugio at La Faba, only opened 3 weeks before and very nice |
 Bunk beds in the refugio |
 A very early start (7.30 am) |
 The path gets a bit clearer |
 A nice dawn (7.50 am) |
 Other pilgrims in the dawn light |
 Beehive building |
 Fountain |
 More steep ascents |
 The first of a long helpful series of kilometre and half-kilometre stones which tell you exactly how slowly you are walking! |
 Vista |
 Vista with morning mist |
 |
 Entering the province of Lugo in Galicia |
 O Cebreiro - The refugio |
