Camino de Santiago Day 6

 

Day 6: We woke up 7:30 and ate a chocolate croissant down the street at Taberna bakery. I then started my hike from Hotel Bidean while Tatiana took a bus to meet me 4.7 miles away at the town of Ciraqui. Prior to meeting Tatiana, the first town I arrived at was Maneru, a cool medieval town. I briefly droned over the city to get a better view before continuing onward. I then met Tatiana in Ciraqui about an hour later. Ciraqui is another medieval town on a hill that I could see from a distance as I approached. We enjoyed walking through the ancient town before departing out the other side. Leaving Ciraqui, we hiked down ancient Roman roads into the Spanish countryside. We then arrived in Lorca, and ate lunch at the local hostel there. After eating, we walked to Villatuerta and passed over the romantic bridge. We ended the day in Estella at Hostal Rua, which was an amazing hostel/hotel. It was very clean, updated, and in a great location next to the Ega River. We relaxed on the outside patio before making a climb up to the Cruz de los Castillos, the site of an ancient castle that stood atop a hill overlooking the town. After that hike, we cleaned up and then went out to dinner at Monjardin. Following dinner, we had a glass of wine at Parranda Wine Bar. We then went back to the hostel and relaxed on the back patio next to the river for the sunset (10 PM) before going to sleep.

Distance hiked: 13.6 miles
