From Zafra to Villafranca de los Barros

We leave Zafra via the Plaza Grande towards the N-432, passing by the San Francisco tower and ascending to the Alto de San Cristóbal, from where we can see Villafranca de los Barros. After reaching the height, we descend towards Los Santos de Maimona and continue along paths through fields until we cross the train tracks.

We access the N-630, cross the A-66 via an underpass, and arrive at Villafranca de los Barros, entering through Zurbarán street until we reach the Plaza de España.

Things to consider

Short and simple stage. Some pilgrims extend it to the next town, but this is not recommended due to the distance.
