Wise Pilgrim APPA pair of bars and a restaurant (La Esquipa) — packed with pilgrims every day but Monday when it's closed. The camino rejoins the road here and crosses it several times between Salceda and Santiago. The speed of traffic, blind curves, and density of pilgrims make this the most dangerous stretch on the Francés. Cross carefully.
The camino rejoins the road in Salceda, and while it does not walk on the road it does remain quite close. In fact, the camino crosses the road several times between here and Santiago. The speed of traffic, the curves in the road, and the abundance of pilgrims makes this the most dangerous stretch along the camino. Cross carefully and quickly and always under the road when possible.
The camino leaves town to the right of a wedge shaped park next to La Esquipa, not along the road.
