Another long day @ 27 kms along pretty boring roads, a lot of hard bitumen walking but not any traffic sharing the narrow ‘C’ roads. Most traffic were the huge tractors with various implements criss-crossing from field to field. Lots of corn planted.
After learning of a shorter route to Pimbo, about 2 kms was knocked off the total. My ‘Alltrails’ app wasn’t happy but my legs were.
Pimbo is as small village with a big church. The town sits high with a view over the surrounding plains, the Pyrenees can be seen in the distance.
Taking regular stops of about 30 mins, and longer for lunch, seems to be the best strategy. With 3 stops, 1 hr is added to the trail but you arrive much fresher. Also, in breaking the walk you give yourself little ‘rest rewards’ and each walking section, of between 6 – 12 kms seem more ‘do-able’.
