!!!!!!!! TOMORROW.!!!!!!!!!!!
Tuesday 18th June ( where did that go?)
Río del la Miel , prisioneros.
12.64km 500m gain in elevation.
Fabulous walk starting with a consistent walk up hill, to give good views. Then we drop down into the forest. Finishing at the water where we can swim if desired. Note it is if intermidate level, due to elevation gain but the path is ok.
The path of the prisoners so called because it runs along open roads in forced labor by prisons full of political prisoners after the Civil War known as disciplinary battalion number 22 an organized group of political prisoners to perform forced labor created by Franco that was located between Venta de Ojén and Cerro del Rayo from 1940 to 1943. With prisons full of prisoners, Franco decides to create disciplinary battalions, an organized group of political prisoners to perform forced labor. After the outbreak of World War II, Franco launches the Fortification Plan on the northern shore of the Strait, with the aim of fortifying and defending the area from possible attacks from the coast. To do this, he built a network of roads in this coastal area of southern Spain from Conil to the Guadiaro River and precisely the path of the prisoners belongs to this network of roads.
