San Martin to Astorga 24Km

Yesterday Ben walked out through the suburbs of Leon and then along the senda to the town of San martindel Camino – not a pretty walk and no pictures as Ben didn’t take any (some can be seen for my posts from my previous visit in 2015). I took the Bus for 2 euro.

Today was more interesting although again starting along senda
