Today you climb gradually, up to around 1,000 metres. It hardly feels like real climbing. The land is open and rolling, the sky is huge and you set the pace.
This is a day for finding your rhythm. Not much steepness, not much fuss. After a good 5 hours of walking, you arrive in Fuenterroble de Salvatierra, a small village that is known among pilgrims mainly for its parish albergue. That leaves you a long afternoon to yourself. Use it to do your washing, rest your feet and take a relaxed look at the next stage.
