[Gocamino] New Camino Route

[Sil]

Posted on Santiago-Today Forum

The governments in Galicia and Leon have decided that the Camino de
Invierno, aka Camino del Sur, will be added to the list of officially
recognised Caminos in Galicia, much to the delight of the Asociación Camiños
a Santiago pola Ribeira Sacra, which has been campaigning for this for many
years now. The route leaves the Camino Frances at Ponferrada and avoids the
heights of O Cebreiro, using the much lower Sil valley via Lemos and
Chantada to join the Sanabres/Mozarabe route near Lalin.
