Vía de la Plata
14.3 km, 63 m up and 101 m down, through 1 place. Where you stop is up to you.
Every place on the path in order, with the distance from Calzadilla de los Barros. Most are too small to sleep in — a fountain, a chapel, a bar that may or may not be open — but they are what the day is actually made of.
Pass straight through Calzadilla and pick up the farm track once again. It returns to the road but only for 500m before it turns left sharply away from the road to return to farm tracks all the way to Puebla de Sancho Pérez, passing the Arroyo Atarja (4.7km).
After passing the Plaza España and Ayuntamiento (Town Hall) the camino passes to the right of the Iglesia de Santa Lucía and heads straight to join the BA-160 out of town. It bears left after passing a gas station to follow a smaller paved road into Zafra.
Distance, climb and descent are measured along the GPS track for this camino — 65 recorded points across this span, the same track the app carries. The town-to-town figures in my data put it at 14.1 km.
