Coming across this sweet, funky, little oasis was one of my favorite unexpected moments on Camino this spring. This stand has fresh fruit, hot coffee, and a warm hello from the owner who is an enthusiastic pilgrim herself. You can’t miss it with that adorable pink car but it’s far from the nearest town and not always open. Like so many other special moments along the Camino you have to be walking on the right path at the right time to experience it.
There are a few great Camino guide books that describe this town and that bridge or tell you how far to walk each day and where to stay but the Camino is full of unexpected moments that aren’t in any book. It’s the fellow pilgrims you meet, the musicians, the woman offering free hugs, the personalized stamp for your credential, and so much more that make walking the Camino such a unique and vibrant travel experience.
Walking the Camino is a different way to travel — adventurous, slow, enriching, decidedly un-touristy. If you’re craving more unexpected moments in your life, I invite you to join us on Camino in 2026. www.floraonfoot.com Fresco Tours
