Walking the Camino de Santiago: Via de la Plata from Salamanca to Zamora

Via de la Plata – Section 6: This section of the Camino de Santiago along the Via de la Plata starts in the stunning city of Salamanca, a UNESCO world heritage site since 1988. The Camino walk is dominated by flat cultivated land and red earth tracks stretching as far as the eye can see on this section. The first few walking days are relatively short but the last walking day to Zamora is a bit longer and therefore a bit more challenging. However, anybody with a reasonable fitness level can do it! This Camino section finishes in Zamora, known locally as 'little Salamanca' for of its architecture and rich heritage. Zamora has 24 Romanesque churches, the highest number in Europe.
