Damn, pilgrimage joke taken...ummm 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 9, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

There aren't many disc golf courses in Spain. DGCR's database counts 5. I wasn't expecting much to be honest, but this course passes all the grades and then some.

My 2 criteria I weigh above most are teepads and signage.
•The teepads are plenty long, align well with the pin, and are concrete. Perfect.
•There is a great course map right near the first pin, the pic of which I took I referred to multiple times.
•Each tee has a sign, with the length, par, any extras like mandos (obligitaros), OB, plus where t go to find the next tee. Perfecto!
•The pin placements were often pretty tricky, using what trees there were to guard this baskets.
•There are plenty of changes in elevation, but not so many that it got bothersome.
•There are some great tunnel shots, especially hole 4.
•Nice mix of holes: long, short, uphill, through woods. There is even a possible water hazard one hole 15.
The Lat 64 baskets do a nice job of catching discs.

Cons:

•There is a long walk from hole 5 to 6. Thanks picture.

•The grounds can be quite wet. Dew doesn't burn off quickly in a place where the sum comes up after 8.

Other Thoughts:

To get to the course you walk along the Compostel trail from town, and come across all kinds of happy people about to reach their goal.

To actually play disc golf in Spain was a blast. I only brought a fairway driver and a putter along, so there were some challenges there.
