Scenic view of Santa Croya de Tera on the Vía de la Plata

Vía de la Plata App

Pilgrims on the road and friends along the way send me changes every day, and they go out the same day. The Vía de la Plata app carries all of it offline, and it's still being built — new features arrive routinely.

Services

Santa Croya is a wine-producing village on the right bank of the Rio Tera, just 1.5 km from Santa Marta de Tera. It has a bar, shops, and a pharmacy -- making it a serviceable stopping point even though the private albergue has been closed without any indication of reopening. A natural swimming pool by the river offers a chance to cool off in summer.

The village is larger than you'd expect for this stretch and has been a waypoint for travellers since the Tera valley served as a natural route through the mountains. If you need supplies, sort them out here before pressing on.
