Look What We Found at the End of the Meseta

What happens at the very end of the Meseta? Apparently… quite a lot! On our final walk across the Meseta, we leave the medieval walls of Mansilla de las Mulas behind and make our way toward one of the Camino Francés' greatest cities — León. But before we get there, we uncover the strange story of seven pilgrims who were “arrested” for wearing shorts, find a filming location from The Way that many pilgrims unknowingly bypass, cross centuries-old bridges, discover some unusual Camino graffiti, meet more unforgettable pilgrims, and encounter a few things we still can't explain. We’ll also show you exactly how to find that hidden "The Way" filming location, share a great place to pick up hiking gear as you enter León, and finally get our first glimpse of the city we've been walking toward for days. And after all those miles… there WILL be ice cream. Maybe more than one. 🥾 In this episode: • Mansilla de las Mulas and its medieval walls • The pilgrims “arrested” for wearing shorts • The history behind Mansilla's famous mule market • Friends and characters we met along the Camino • Strange art, graffiti and a few Camino mysteries • A hidden filming location from The Way • Our final steps across the Meseta • Walking into León • And a three-legged chicken.
