Calatayud day 1: Rachael’s hike

After biking past all the colorful rock formations yesterday I was really looking forward to taking a hike!  I definitely would rather walk on unpaved roads than bicycle on them.  Scott helped me find a hike that didn’t look to steep and took me though colorful landscape of rock and lot of beautiful trees.   The route mostly followed an unpaved road with no traffic.  I was really surprised how green and lush the pine trees were.  And at the turn around point, I got wonderful views of the colorful red rock!  This is the best hike of this tour!  I definitely recommend this town!

On the way out of town. This is such a beautiful place!
