Hiking in Cantagallo

The Ruta Vía de la Plata, also known as the Silver Route, is an impressive long-distance hiking route in Spain that runs along a historic Roman road.

Entering the region Castilla y León and at the pass the landscape changes. After the fertile mountain land, the Meseta begins - a more barren plain in the heart of Spain.

This pilgrimage on the Via de la Plata already begins at the southernmost point of the Spanish mainland: in Tarifa. Through Andalusia to Seville, through Extremadura via Merida to Salamanca, and from Zamora through the mountains of Galicia via Ourense, this hiking trip follows pilgrimage paths to Santiago de Compostela and further to Fisterra. A magnificent hike through diverse landscapes of Spain!
