The climb defines this day. You work your way up more than 360 metres, steep and in one go, and you’ll need both your legs and your patience for it. This is a tough stage, and it suits you best if you start well rested.

After the climb, it’s no free ride. The path keeps going up and down, with plenty of descents that will test your knees. You’ll be on the move for almost 9 hours, so pace yourself and don’t hesitate to take breaks. Lunas is a quiet village, and after this day that’s exactly what you want. You’ll arrive tired, but with the feeling that you’ve achieved something. Walk at your own pace and you’ll get there.

Tips for this stage

  • Take enough water and food with you for the whole day.
  • Walking poles will spare your knees on the long descents.
  • Set off at first light, so you're not climbing in the heat.
