The first light filters through the holm oaks, and before long Aracena is behind you. This is open, hilly country with dry tracks and little shade. The climbs and descents roughly balance each other out, but it keeps going. At almost 8 hours of walking, this is a full day, though it isn’t extremely hard.
Keep an eye on where you’ll sleep. Nothing is registered in or around Cañaveral de León. So sort out your bed in advance, or choose a place earlier or further on. Bring plenty of food and water. When the village finally appears, you’ll have earned it. Take it steadily and you’ll get there.
