Over 900 metres: that’s what this day is all about. First you walk up to it, then you walk back down again. Along the way, the route goes up and down more often than you’d expect.
It’s an average stage, but at around 7 hours of walking it does ask something of you. It’s not a monster climb, but the hills stay in your legs. There’s about as much descending as climbing, so your knees get just as much work as your calves.
You arrive in Paresotas with a pleasantly tired feeling. Pace yourself, take a proper break along the way and walk at your own speed. The village will come in its own time.
