Has anyone stayed at the Albergue in Oliva de Plasencia on the Via de La
Plata? I see that from Galisteo to Arco de Caparra is approx. 29.5 k,
however last year I did not see or know of an Albergue near the Arco. It
looks like the one in Oliva is off the camino by some distance. Any info
about how far it is and how do you get back would be helpful. Last year
Elena in Carcaboso called ahead and a gentleman picked me and my wife up at
the Arco and drove us to his hostel (8k away towards Banos). Carcabosso to
the Arco was not too far but to continue to Aldeanuevo del Camino or Banos
de Montemayor would be over 50k. The Arco splits the different well from
Galisteo where we might stay this year, but I don't read Spanish well and I
cannot find how far off the camino I will need to walk for Oliva de
Plasencia. 5 or 6k is O.K. But 10k gets to be an expedition.

Any light shed on the matter would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Jeff Mayor
