From Molinaseca to Villafranca del Bierzo

The more than thirty kilometres that separate Molinaseca from Villafranca del Bierzo run through fields of vineyards and quiet villages full of services. We will pass through Ponferrada, the last big city until we reach Compostela, which will amaze us with the beautiful Castle of the Templars. The landscape becomes greener and greener and little by little we feel the proximity of Galicia.

From Molinaseca you soon reach Ponferrada, capital of the Bierzo, where you can't miss its magnificent Castillo de los Templarios. You bid farewell to the Castilian fields and enter wine country, passing through Camponaraya and Cacabelos, on to Villafranca del Bierzo: enjoy its Puerta del Perdón, the church of Santiago, and even a dip at its river beach.
