El Camino Ingles. Ferrol – Santiago de Compostela, Galicia. 27th – 31st October 2019. 123 kms.

October 27 Perlio, Galicia, Spain
Las Flechas Amarilla. Day 38. Ferrol- Neda – Gene – Perlio. 25 kms. So, I’ve got a week up my sleeve. Welcome to el Camino Ingles. (The English Way.) Ferrol is a Navy town on the NW coast of Galicia. I arrived just before lunch and decided to get going. p.s. I haven’t seen another peregrino all day. Definitely NOT on el Frances.

October 28 Betanzos, Galicia, Spain
Las Flechas Amarilla. Day 39. Perlio – Fene – Pontedeume – Mino – Betanzos. 32 kms. A very undulating day especially the climb out of Pontedeume. It was a beautiful walk with occasional glimpse of the huge Betanzos estuary

October 29 Bruma, Galicia, Spain 

Las Flechas Amarilla. Day 40. Betanzos – Presedo – Meson do Bento. 25 kms. Now that daylight savings has finished, I got away at 0715. However, it was a long, long uphill climb from the coast to Presedo via country lanes and forest paths. It started raining about 10 kms from my Hostel so by the time I got here I was wet and cold. Nothing that couldn’t be fixed with a hot shower and a cerveza.

October 30 Siguero
Las Flechas Amarilla. Day 41. Meson do Vento – Siguero. 25 kms. A very easy day’s walk and very beautiful despite the rain or because of the rain.

October 31 2019 Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain.

Las Flechas Amarilla. Day 42. The last day. Siguero – Santiago de Compostela. 16 kms. A lovely stroll in the rain to el Praza do Obradoiro. Compostela completed, booked in, showered and washing on. Time for a cerveza.
