Day 3 Tábara - Santa Marta de Tera
23 km (+3 km detour)
I'm not sure how I manage it, but whenever I decide to walk a shortish stage I always manage to make it longer. Today was no different. Maybe that's why no one walks with me 🤣

Maurice,

We've had awful weather in The...
Zamora- Montamarta - Fontanillas de Castro 31.6 km
