Requena 22 September 2019


After three grueling and partly unplanned days of walking, I declared today to be a rest day. So on this rest day, I set out with just my light day pack and went backwards on the Camino path in the direction of El Rebollar. I went 5 miles, not quite all the way back, before returning to Requena on the same path. So the ten miles that I walked in three hours more than made up for the needed lift by car yesterday. As you can see from the photos, the scenery was beautiful with well tended vineyards and wilder land along a stream canyon. The recent rains have greened up the foliage nicely. Tomorrow should also be easy, with about 15 miles of slightly upsloping paths.
