Pleasant and probably quieter than the other route.

As the previous post said, if you follow the map instead of the sign you go up a hill. This was 100% the best part of my day. You are rewarded with final stretch of dirt road before Leon, a wonderful view, and some quiet and solitude before the city.

The warehouses mentioned are just 2 short blocks as you get back to the main road. You then get another dirt track around the traffic circle to a pedestrian bridge that joins you back to the town route.

Unless you need food or toilet I highly recommend starting on the dirt road.

The main signposted Camino route now goes through Valdelafuente. We followed the route in the app but got a hill and a walk through warehouses instead of the main road. I think the main road would have been better.
