Yesterday’s walk was long and it was hot.  Today’s was longer but less hot.  We are comparing 97 degrees to 90…towards the end, not the whole thing!!  A major section near the beginning this morning was utterly spectacular.  Fortunately there were metal cords to hold onto where the ledge was narrow and metal steps withContinue reading “July 13 Liguerre de Cinca to Tierratona”

Couldn’t have started earlier (5:45), couldn’t have walked faster, made only one mistake, though that cost a good 20 minutes, and there were many paces where it would have been easy to miss a turnoff, and still it took seven hours to walk 16 miles.  Granted it was hot.  It was well into the 90’s when IContinue reading “July 12 Nocito to Liguerre”

Other issues: there is the stream the bridge across which hasContinue reading “11 de julio Not the walk”

I never knew 13.5 miles could be so tough, even Wikiloc, the site for all walks, classifies the stretch from Arguis to Nocito as difficult.  To be sure, the scenery was impressive, spectacular, in fact, but at the end you felt as if you had walked 20 miles.  What a relief to arrive at aContinue reading “July 10 Arguis to Nocito”

Gorgeous walk today, tough, but gorgeous. There were thunder storms last night and more predicted, so I was concerned when I left at 5:45 and heard the (last) faint rumbles.  Last night I looked up, “What to do when you are out in the middle of nowhere in a thunder storm (or some variant ofContinue reading “July 09 Bolea to Arguis”

Last night I had company in the B and B, a very personable Italian man, Luca, a science teacher, who was walking a different walk in a different direction.  He was one of those guys who carries everything in his back pack, which was not all that big, and, who, when the dueña tells himContinue reading “July 8 Loarre to Bolea”

Today’s walk took in some dramatic scenery and was a civilized 13 miles.  Thank God I had asked Jose at the hotel how to get to the bridge: (which, in real life, was not blurry)  about 3/4 of a mile after the start of the walk because it turned out that the narrative in theContinue reading “Jul 07 Murillo de Gallego to Loarre”

5:45 a.m. pick up by taxi only it was later because taxi and I were not waiting in the same spot.  But anyway, it was a good thing there was a place to start some 7 km from Biel because it became very hot and there was a section in the mountains where finding theContinue reading “July 6, Biel (Fuencalderas) to Murillo de Gallego”

The circular walk I was going to do informed that you had to go to “a parking” two miles north of Biel to get started.  I could not find said road on a map, so I decided to walk part of today’s walk in reverse and walk back to Biel, another round trip.  It wasContinue reading “July 05 Biel to Biel”

A nice walk, only about 9 miles. The only navigational problem was getting to the place where the path started.  Yes, I did figure it out yesterday, but it is over half a mile from hotel through a maze of streets that all look the same.  After that slight challenge, the waymarking was E forContinue reading “July 04 Sos del Rey Católico a Petilla de Aragón”
