Detour is much further than stated

This app says that Olivia de Plasencia is only 3.5km from the junction at Ventaquemada, but it’s actually 7km along an unshaded road

ATM

ATM is available in this little town, and the only bar offers good food at a very reasonable price. I stayed in Albergue San Blas at €22 including breakfast.
