The church at O Cebreiro

I've already posted this picture, but as I'm doing them in order, I thought I'd put it in again. It was so high that we were actually in the clouds, and we got out of breath just walking a short distance. It must be really hard work walking at that height with a large back-pack, as we saw many people doing.

I think this little mountain village may be the place from which people start if they are walking the final 100km into Santiago. But all along the route you see groups of people walking or cycling - an amazing number must do the whole trek from France every year.
