Finisterre, Cordoba, Fatima, Puy-en-Velais (a little Way of St. James)

The only goal of this trip was to pick up Tanja again after 6 weeks and almost 1,000 km (!) of the Way of St. James. A round conclusion at the end of the "camino" in Finisterre, a trip to Andalusia to visit relatives but also to finally do the cathedral in Cordoba live, a bit of a spiritual conclusion via Fatima and the other St. Jean Pied de Port starting points on the Way of St. James and Puy en Velais. This time I also had the motorcycle piggyback with me to head for the longer distances as day trips. That went quite well, but: the rural areas in Spain and especially Portugal are challenging by car, adventurous with a motorhome and with a motorcycle trailer behind the motorhome "a nightmare"! I don't do it anymore...

Travelogue

Day 1
Reutlingen, Deutschland

Sangüesa, Spanien
31400 Sangüesa, Navarre, Spanien

Small village on the pilgrimage route - here I only had to collect a few things from Tanja. In the village there are some hostels and small shops. If you drive through this landscape from Pamplona you will see some pilgrims and get a first impression of the Camino - beautiful, almost untouched nature, always the Pyrenees in view and vast emptiness...

I spent the night at a rest stop on the Autobahn: safe, quiet and a cup of coffee in the morning...


Day 2
Camping Ruta De Finisterre, Lugar Playa Estorde, Cee, Spanien
Lugar Playa Estorde, 216, 15270 Cee, A Coruña, Spanien

Super campsite: across the street is the beach, a few restaurants and from the site in no time to Finisterre (we by motorbike) or to nearby destinations. Place has large footprints and everything you need. Clean and good sanitary facilities and cheap. I didn't have to reserve in advance - apparently the crowds of visitors here don't start until the middle/end of July.

Day 4
Sanlúcar de Guadiana, Spanien
21595 Sanlúcar de Guadiana, Huelva, Spanien

Off to Uncle in Sanlucar - just over 400 inhabitants but almost always something going on. Anyone who has never been there must have seen it: with the "limitezero" zip line over the Rio Guadiana to Portugal, and back by boat. Alcoutim on the Portuguese side opposite is also interesting.


The parking space is really simple...: at least there is water - but: parking space and water are free! If you like it puristic, you can stand here for a while and start hiking or driving from here (but everything is very mountainous here - not for lowland cyclists!)


Day 5
Sanlucar de Guadiana

located right on the river.

Here on the river beach you can rent paddle boats and SUPs, go flyboarding, drive a motor boat yourself or take a tour of the Guadiana. Above is a castle ruin and you can also walk a few hiking trails. In Alcoutim there is also a castle and a city beach. Excursions by car/motorcycle: Mertula (P), Minas de Riotinto (E, I think it's great!), to the sea -> Isla Canela or Cristina, Algarve, Huelva,...

Evening photo is from Spain over to Portugal from the chiringuito right on the river.
