‌VARIATION through Valtuille de Arriba

Shortly after leaving Pieros the camino splits near a set of power lines. The detour through Valtuille, favored for its safety and scenery, is to the right. The road route continues straight for several kilometers before turning off onto a dirt track. This track will rejoin the Valtuille route.

This section was one of our favorite of the Camino so far and we’ve been walking since Pamplona. We walked through at 7pm - the light was perfect on the vineyards - the apple trees were blooming. The townsfolk were friendly. It was walking through a fairytale wine region. Old gnarly head pruned vines everywhere.

There are a few climbs but nothing out of the ordinary. If you are in Camino shape it will be easy. And so worth it.

Then be sure to drink some local wine in Villafranca when you arrive!!! We had a great meal and bottle of Mencia at Bar Sevilla.

At the end of a long day this can be very challenging with the nonstop hills and cars passing with a dust of dirt from the dry road.

Lovely detour though vineyards and beautiful landscapes! It is a little to climb, but nothing too hard.
