Camino Photo of the Day: Up into La Faba

As we enter the village of La Faba – the penultimate village before the Galician border – two things are apparent from this photo: it’s hot and sunny, and it’s all uphill. Just how steep is the climb? There’s a stables here that makes their living renting out horses to pilgrims for the last push up to O Cebreiro.
