Stage Description

Leaving behind the monumental Toledo, this stage enters into the comarca of Torrijos. The profile is a gentle rise and fall through a landscape of fields of cultivation and olive groves. It's a transition day that brings the pilgrim back to the tranquility of Castilian countryside. Arrival in Torrijos, a town with a rich Renaissance heritage, highlighting its Colegiata of the Holy Sacrament, offers a culturally very interesting final stage.
The exit from the impressive city of Toledo leads to a stage that enters into the Torrijos countryside. The profile is undulating, a gentle "breakneck" that crosses a landscape of cereal fields and olive groves. The road runs on dirt tracks and tranquil local roads, in an eminently rural environment. Passes through the locality of Rielves. Arrival at Torrijos, capital of the region, is the end of the stage. This town had great splendor during the Renaissance, and from that time it conserves a notable heritage. Its Colegiata of the Holy Sacred Sacrament is a magnificent example of the architecture of the period. Also of interest are the Palace of Pedro I and the Hospital of the Holy Trinity. Torrijos offers all necessary services for pilgrims and an authentic Castilian village atmosphere.
