Stage Description
This long stage enters the Leonese Plateau, one of the flattest and most exposed areas along the entire Camino Francés route. The trail advances over a dirt path that runs parallel to the road, through a monotonous agricultural landscape but inviting reflection. The highlight of the day is arriving at Hospital de Órbigo and crossing its impressive medieval bridge, "Passo Honroso", the scene of legendary tournaments of chivalry. It's a flat day ending in a place loaded with history and legend.
