Via de la Plata

On 15 May we began to cycle the Via de la Plata.  This is a pilgrim route starting at the Cathedral in Seville and ending at the Cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, a total of approximately 1,000 km.

Last year we rode the Camino Frances and had very mixed weather conditions.  This year we were hoping for better.  We had been advised by a friend who lives in Seville not to do the ride as proposed in June, because he said it would be too hot for us, so we brought it forward two weeks.  We began the route in quite cold conditions which improved as the route continued north.

See The Via de la Plata page for a full description of our route.
