Stage Description

Leaving behind the walled city, this stage enters into the La Moraña region, in the Castilian plain. The profile is mostly flat, an enjoyable walk through a landscape of cereal fields. It's a transition day that brings the pilgrim back to the vastness of the Meseta. Arrival at Arévalo, a village with an impressive Mudéjar heritage, highlighting its castle and churches, offers a monumental final stage.
The stage that connects Ávila to Arévalo is a transition journey that takes the mountain pilgrim to the plain. The profile is very favorable, with a gentle descent. The landscape changes radically, and the foothills of the sierra give way to the La Moraña region, an extensive cereal plain. The path runs on dirt tracks in an environment of great solitude and open horizons. Arrival at Arévalo is the grand prize of the day. This village is the capital of Mudéjar art in Castile and León. Its castle, where part of her childhood passed Queen Isabella, and its numerous brick churches, such as those of San Martín, Santa María la Mayor or San Miguel, are of exceptional beauty. Walking through its old town is to discover an outdoor museum of this architectural style. Arévalo is also famous for its cuisine, especially for roasted suckling pig. It's a monumental and gastronomic stop of the first order.
