Tuesday 3rd June 2014
As I noted earlier - the church of Bulnes is located at the highest point of the village. Vero invited us to do the short walk up to the church - but the short walk turned out to be quite an effort! That's how unfit I have become. A heavy lunch of pate and cheese with the cider did not help either. Anyhow it turned out to be quite a pleasant walk. The surrounding near vertical mountains however were mostly covered by a layer of cloud. So we did not get to see the highest peak of this mountain range. Bulnes is sited about 600 metres above sea level. As I reported earlier the highest peak stands at 2400 metres. Hikes to the peak often start from the trails that originate from this village.

the trail to walk up from the base can be seen skirting the right mountain slope
