Again our Albergue was right on the Camino. There was no kitchen here but it did boast a dinning room, for a few extra euros we could order breakfast. Not like an American breakfast, just bread, butter and jam, coffee and a piece of fruit. We’ve been given that a few times now.
Getting to Berria, the next town was a pretty nice walk. We walked out of the busy section of town towards El Dueso, a long high walled prison.
We continued on a paved surface but there was much to see and appreciate.
After the prison we continued on through this town, along the sidewalk, leading to the beach.
We left the beach and followed a winding path towards Alto El Brusco. We started climbing.
We were actually enjoying our selves, this was fun! Like an obstacle course climbing over different objects. We had prickly bushes on each side of the trail, so I figured if I fall down I actually won’t go far. I had a sense of security and enjoyed the climb. Then we reached the peak. Scary! No more bushes to protect a fall. Al had to take the lead.
Just love all the different flowers!
After the peak going down was rough! The ground was wet on this side of the mountain extremely slippery with jagged rocks jutting out. It was treacherous going. We went slow and helped each other over difficult parts.
Almost off the mountain.
We came down several steps and we were out and on the beach, it was incredible, exhilarating , nerve wracking and fantastic! Loved it!
We walked across the sands to an opening between two buildings leading to Noja.
After we left the beach we continued down a gravel path between animals on one side and gardens on the other.
We were trying to get to Guemes, but somehow got off track.
We stopped for a break and the extremely kind waitress told us of an alternate route. We walked down Eucalyptus lined roads.
Finally we arrive at the best Albergue so far.
La Cabana Del Abuelo Peuto. We were greeted with glasses of fresh water and cookies during registration. Then we got a quick tour and led to out bunks. Dinner is provided as well as breakfast and it is all run on donations and with the help of volunteers.
