July 14, 2024,Ruta agua, Chan das Pipas, Redondela, ruta del Agua (bajando y subiendo por Camino portugués)

Going along the Water Route to Chan das Pipas to take the Portuguese Way to Redondela where I make a small turn and return along the Portuguese Way along the coast in the opposite direction until climbing back to the Water Route and back home.
Easy walk getting ready for tonight's final.
At this time we are already European Champions.
