    Bis zum Startpunkt haben wir die Busverbindungen benutzt, wie hier beschrieben. Von der beschriebenen Ausflugswirtschaft Asador Mendipe sind wir zu Fuß wieder bis in die Innenstadt zurückgelaufen. Das ging ganz gut, weil es nur bergabwärts ging. Die Ausflugswirtschaft Asador Mendipe ist ein einfacher Biergarten, wo die Essensauswahl stark beschränkt ist. Wie beschrieben, sind die Wege abwärts sehr lehmig und rutschig. Als wir im Oktober da waren, hatte es schon länger nicht geregnet und trotzdem waren einige Passagen nur "auf allen Vieren" zu begehen. Vermutlich wären Wanderschuhe besser als unsere Turnschuhe gewesen.
