getting lost

Route out of Santiagoa bit tricky but from there on one would have to
work pretty hard to get lost.  Use discretion however, the route is laid
out to avoid roads a much as possible and the markers will lead you on a
long walk to avoid a short stretch of road.  This is evident on the
second day, there is a sign along the route pointing to a bar (an
absolute necessity as this is the first chance to get a coffee) if you
follow the short route to the bar then return and follow the markers you
will end up after 20 minutes of walking along the route about 100 m from
the bar.

> Is it very separate from the road?

In most cases yes except a few stretches along country roads where the
traffic you have to watch out for is "High Speed" cow herds, (Watch your
step) and a few stretches in the villages.
