- On today's adventure as we delve deeper into the enchanting province of Extremadura! This remarkable region in Spain has gained fame for being a leading producer of the exquisite Ibérico ham its three UNESCO world heritage sights and as the fourth largest wine-producing region in Spain with excellent Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah
Our walk out of Villafranco de los Barros to Torremeijay is through miles and miles of vineyards. And the sheer beauty of the primitive unspoiled landscape really captures the essence of Extremadura's natural splendor.
I enjoyed your meditation on branches... Also, thank you for showing this path so I can know what to expect when I attempt it someday. 😄
