Caldas de Reis est surtout connu pour ses sources d'eau chaude (caldas). Elles existent toujours, mais la tradition de mettre ses pieds dans la fontaine est déconseillée pour des raisons d'hygiène évidentes. Tout de même vraiment, un bain chaud après une chaude journée de marche n'est pas le meilleur des plans. Pour voir les sources (et suivre le camino), tourne à gauche après avoir traversé le premier pont de la ville.

Le camino traverse le vieux quartier avant d'arriver à un autre pont, à l'extrémité opposée duquel se trouve l'albergue municipale et la sortie de la ville.

Les sources d'eau chaude se trouvent à l'extrémité gauche de l'albergue.

L'église de la ville est dédiée à Saint Thomas Becket, l'une des très rares du genre en Espagne et peut-être la seule en Galice. Si tu ne fais que passer en ville dans l'après-midi, les palmiers qui entourent l'église constituent un endroit rafraîchissant où se détendre.

The Road

En sortant de la ville, c'est à nouveau le long de la N550 (ce qui franchement sera fréquemment le cas entre ici et Santiago). Laisse-la à ta droite au premier virage de la route.

We are staying in Aires de Umia and it is very good, located on the path immediately after crossing the bridge. Beautifully renovated by the architect owner. Private room with bathroom €56 ( three single beds, making it a reasonable price for three friends sharing).

The villa had a pool which was a welcome sight after a long days walk. Staff and villa was perfect and close to restaurants etc. There is a lovely mass at 8pm for Pilgrims. Great food in most of the restaurants, well worth a stop.

As you walk into Caldas drop down to the tapas bar on the right . Unbelievable food and cheap too. A place to lose an afternoon

Amazing stop here. Thermal baths to soak tires feet. Stayed at the Albor, which is run by a very lovely lady and has an amazing wax stamp. Finally had maybe the best meal of my Camino at the simple cafeteria therma (right at the river). 11 for the menu del dia and 100% worth every penny.
