Food and drink Water is a problem. Carry plenty of it with you, at least two litres a day a person. Plan your next water tanking stations ahead. We never walked a day without any place to drink. On the other hand, an evening without a fresh stream in front of the tent is like having dry bread to eat.
Food is expensive in above mentioned tourist stations.
In the mountain hut no food is sold or made. We survived on bocadillos and biscuits. In march, when we made our walk, the climate was rather soft and dry, pleasant. The plain is coloured yellow and white from the broom. Bees are busy foraging.
