Location & what to see

Albergue La Senda is on Calle Real in Rabanal del Camino, a village in León Province associated with the French Way to Santiago. The village is a regular stop for those walking through the Montes de León, in a small-town setting with churches and country paths. The Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción is a four-minute walk away; the Chapel of San José is 170 m away and the Chapel of Vera Cruz is 270 m away. From the centre of the village, pilgrims can rejoin the route and plan a day's walk in the surrounding area.

Astorga, 20 km away, has several points of interest for a town visit: the Episcopal Palace and the Museum of the Ways are the same distance away. The Church of San Juan Bautista is 5.7 km away; for longer trips, the Church of San Julián or Old Church is 27 km away and the Church of El Salvador is 32 km away. Nearby are the Memorial to the pilgrims of the Camino de Santiago, 2.3 km away, the Peña Furada archaeological site, 2.7 km away, and the Torreón de los Osorio, 3.9 km away.
