Ponferrada to Villafranca del Bierzo

Ponferrada to Villafranca del Bierzo

6h 10m · 23 km · 350 m gain

Downhill through vineyard country in the Bierzo valley on paths and quiet roads. Expect about 6 hours 10 minutes of gentler walking after yesterday's effort.

Villafranca del Bierzo is a pretty town with a famous church door for the absolved - and good wine. A softer day that sets up the climb into Galicia tomorrow.
