May 4, 2017 – 15. 5 miles ( 25 Km) Left Ponferrada under overcast skies, which was a relief, because the forecast was for pretty high temperatures. It took a few miles to get out of the city and suburbs. The walk today felt very long. We spent most of the day walking on roads, it wasn’t until the last few miles when we walked through some beautiful vineyards, as the area of Bierzo is a pretty big wine producer. Our legs and feet are feeling the effects of yesterday’s long walk and the hard road today. We tried not to walk too much this afternoon as we have a challenging day tomorrow, long and very hilly!!
