Roncesvalles to Zubiri

21.5 km and 4:53 (see map).

Easier walk today – undulating rather than lots of big hills/mountains and some downhill for the last few kms. Another day of spectacular scenery. A few high clouds about, but sunny and warm.

Wifi bandwidth abysmal so far – too many peregrinos trying to access it at once. Consequently uploading photos challenging. Will keep trying.

790 km by road. About the same on foot.

Inquisitive (and, I must say, rather attractive) sheep.

Breakfast stop. Interesting juxtaposition of bar and church, although I suppose each could be considered a sacred place.

Started to see a few rivers today.

Pretty houses in the villages.

Typical countryside for the morning.

Morning tea stop.

A slug.

Haven’t seen or heard any wild animals yet. Greatest danger faced so far is spearing by an errant walking pole.

Not much grass in this small village.

Blind corners abound.

A coffee cart a few km before Zubiri.

The municipal albergue at Zubiri.

€8.00 for a comfortable bunk bed in a bright airy room.
