As we left Lugo, we crossed a picturesque bridge and passed a lake. Here we met our pilgrim acquaintance from the third day again – the couple who had tried to follow the road on the way to La Espina. GPS data of the hike on the Camino Primitivo The Camino Primitivo from Lugo From…
Today was our last day with Stefan. He had planned to hike only as far as Lugo and leave from there as, unlike us, he had already completed several other Caminos and had already covered the last few kilometers of the Camino Primitivo. GPS data of the hike on the Camino Primitivo Lugo – An…
