Charlie: What a nice sounding phrase, but with some issues when you are walking. Our guidebook has these wonderful charts of the elevation changes for each days walk but they don’t show all the small ups and downs along the way and there are more of them than I would have guessed. Yesterday we saw Viana in the distance several miles away, thanks to the rolling hills there are lots of high points, but we went up and down 100-200 feet four or five times along the way.
But the beauty of the country makes it worth it and Google Tracks keeps track of all the elevation changes so you can look back at what you did.
