On Thursday I'm off to continue my walk along the GR11 starting at Candanchu and ending on the coast at Cabo de Creus, the most easterly point on the Spanish mainland. This will take about 6 weeks and then Helen comes out to Empuriabrava (northern Costa Brava) for a weeks rest by the sea. Also Bex will join me in July for a weeks trek on the GR11 from Puigcerda to Setcases passing through the highest point on the route, so that is something to look forward to. I intend to do a combination of camping, refuges and hostels on route and I expect the first three weeks will be most difficult in terms of the gradients but hopefully there will be less snow on the high passes than there was in 2004. I should get to Cabo de Creus by the end of July.
The photo is the first section I will do and was taken in June 2004 when it was the last section I did before reaching Sallent de Gallego.
