thank you for your replies - please forgive me however.
I've just checked on the map and the 'diversion' I was referring to is just before you arrive at Orrison - just wondering if the zig zag dirt track is worth the effort?
hi there,
having cycled the Camino already I'm 'familiar' with the Napolean route using the surfaced road from Orisson to the 'Peak' where you venture off road to the right where there is a memorial.
