Espinosa to Soncillo 30 kms

Espinosa to Soncillo 30 kms
Had heavy rain and thunder storms yesterday evening and overnight, but it was dry again this morning. A bit cooler today after yesterday’s 30 deg so that and the great track made it a good day. Most of the way was on very rural tracks with the limestone escarpments dominant to the south. The track was a little muddy in places and parts would be very difficult in the rain. However, the markings were excellent, although the odd one was a little faded ( see photo ) and very easy to follow. Unusually, I had a coffee at the start of the day and stopped half way in Quisicedo at a great bar for another coffee and a mid morning snack. Had what was the best ‘crackling’ I have ever had and a pincho of Serrano ham with stuffed pepper. Yum yum and only 3.80 euros. Now staying in the Hotel El Capricho de Clemente which has very large rooms at charge 35 euros half board!
