Itinerary description
|
We slept in Kimngorom. Chief Bernad welcomed us and let us camp. We had to leave late due to a robbery and sleeping in Kimngorom allowed us to divide that stage into two. And the truth is it has been a success because the original stage all in one day is very hard with the hot days in the area.
Today's stage has been basically uphill. It begins with a climb by race that we did very early that has a section with very steep slopes but that is easy to climb if there is no sun. Then you enter the trail area through a very beautiful area of subtropical mountains and peasant communities. At one point you leave the track and enter a very steep path where you have to push the bike. That part is hard, although you pass through interesting communities and schools where the interaction can be very rich. We ate at a very simple hotel (restaurant) in Tuluongoi and bought food for dinner.
In two km we arrive at the ninbus campsite, which is the one that the route planned as the end of the original stage.
It is a very simple campsite. It's a bar where they basically let you camp. They have a quiet area for campers that includes a large, pleasantly bright shed. It does have good views.
