      Thanks again Alan, Santo Domingo is nice for 1 night, a few bars and restaurants, the monastery is also worth a visit!

    Great vid! I will be visiting Sad Hill as I make my way from Soria to Potes. I will be out there end of June this year but will be visiting on a Sunday and expect it to be a bit busier than you guys found. Plan to make my way to the cemetery from the north approach as I have read the gravel path is not so bad.

      @TwoFourCharlie007  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks Tony, yes if you approach from the north it is a bit easier, Santo Domingo town is worth a visit mind, it’s got a lovely Monastery and some nice little bars, there’s a couple of places there to purchase sad hill memorabila too, enjoy the trip!!
