This day asks little of your legs and mostly a bit of patience in your head. It’s an easy stage of around 20 kilometres, with more downhill than uphill. You’ll be on the move for almost six hours, so it’s no stroll. Keep to a steady pace and the kilometres will pass by themselves.

After twenty stages you know your rhythm. The climbs are short. You’ll feel the descents mainly in your knees, so place your feet deliberately. That way you can also keep an eye on the Bierzo landscape around you. Cabañas Raras is a small village. You arrive quietly and without fuss, with time for your washing and your feet. Tomorrow is the final stage. Walk by feel today and you’ll be there in plenty of time.

Tips for this stage

  • Take food and drink with you for almost six hours of walking.
  • You descend more than you climb: shorten your steps on steep, loose sections.
  • Tomorrow is the final stage: check your feet and your rucksack this evening.
