Camino Francés Day 29: Samos - A Pena
Leaving Samos, we followed the arrows onto a poorly maintained, sketchy trail before joining the road for the rest of the way to Sarria.
Today was a big milestone for us—we planned to reach the 100 km mark! We had heard the trail from Sarria to Santiago would be crowded, but I didn’t expect it to be *this* packed. Tour buses were dropping off groups, school groups were passing through, and there were far more pilgrims than before. It felt like a completely different experience from earlier stretches.
We took our time in Sarria, enjoying a big breakfast and a long break before heading to our albergue at the 100 km mark. Thankfully, the weather cleared up, so we could do laundry and finally dry our shoes! I can’t believe I’m this close to Santiago.
