Day 20 – Astroga to Rabanal del Camino

The morning started out out a bit colder then we were used to (5c), and we started out just after daybreak.  Today’s journey took us through the foot hills of the Leon Mountains, we progressed to an altitude of about 1050metres, and we cover the rest of the 1400 metres tomorrow. The walk started off downhill. But what goes down must go up. The village of Rabanal del Camino is mainly old stone buildings built along the path up the mountain.

We are getting there, slowly but surely

Our pace has been hampered by my feet, we managed 22km today. But tomorrow maybe only 17km.

We walked into a small Hamlet and the first thing we came across was a series of bars and cafés.
