Janet and Kevin’s Very Big Walk

Day 11, Belorado to San Juan de Ortega.

Woohoo, we’ve completed one third of The Camino Frances today! It’s been a day of climbing upwards and now we’re back up in mountains at a height of 4,000ft. That’s higher than anywhere in England, Wales or Ireland but not Scotland!

We’ve travelled through farmland and on forest tracks. Now we are in the extremely remote hamlet of San Juan de Ortega. It has a huge old monastery but only very few houses.

One feature of The Camino is the amazing wall art that fills the sides of buildings. This seemed to be a particular feature of Belorado, where we stayed last night.
