Several roadside bars serving truckers and pilgrims alike. Dangerous intersection at the road crossing — the crosswalk is unmarked and arrows on the far side are often hidden by parked cars.

Notice:

CAUTION crossing the road, dangerous intersection.

The Camino:

The camino crosses the main road at the highest point in the road, there is no marked crosswalk and the arrows on the other side of the road are often obscured by parked cars. You may see pilgrims continuing along the road but are advised against following them as the camino returns to the trail when you turn off the road.Half way down the hill it splits and arrows indicate that you should either turn left to go under the road or continue straight. Unless you have reason to visit Santa Irene you can keep on straight and avoid the hassle of crossing back over the road. If you continue straight you will arrive at the important part of Santa Irene (the part with the bar).
