Fire in Spain

Apologies if this isn't the right thread, but I searched the forum and only saw threads about Portugal. I was googling for info about the fires, and Google Maps showed one in Spain. No idea how big it is. Seems to be between Astorga and Ponferrada.

Looks like it’s well north of the CF.

Thank you, @TulasiPriya, for posting this information. I will be in Ponferrada next week.

There are some spots relevant to those on the Sanabrés/VDLP.

Open Google Maps (the App) and select the option WILDFIRES. then you will see it.

(Don’t scroll down to Bra.z.i.l, you’ll be shocked). It’s everywhere.

There’s also some infos at the Guardia Civil at Instagram.

Most of the fires this year seem to have been either nowhere near any Camino route or near some very tertiary routes trod by a dozen or fewer pilgrims in any given year.

The one you mention is close to Branuelas which is on the Via Kunig. I start from Leon on Friday so will carry extra water just in case !
