Fontanillas de Castro Hostel
Calle la Barca 5 ( on the road at the end of town )
Fontanillas de Castro (Zamora) ( 29 km from Zamora)
Hostel owner: City Hall of San Cabría de Castro
Institution or administration in charge of maintenance costs: AZACS (Association Zamorana de los Caminos de Santiago)
Person in charge of the hostel: Angela and Paco
Remarks: The hostel of Fontanillas de Castro is set up to welcome pilgrims walking along the Vía de la Plata, maintaining the traditional reception that has always been dispensed to pilgrims by offering a community dinner and community breakfast ( donation ) in exchange for them to maintain the facilities of the new hostel that will have a permanent hospital. This is a strategic point about 29 kilometers from Zamora, suitable for those who find the previous population short in their planning of the road. It is a newly built hostel, with very dignified facilities for pilgrims to find the necessary rest after a journey and has an interior patio in which to rest and recover the forces left on that day. In the surroundings, the castle of Castrotorafe stands out, a medieval enclave of great relevance and the final part of the Ricobayo reservoir that in the summer months can represent a small oasis for pilgrims. We hope that the reception that will be given to those who arrive will make this hostel one of those memories that pilgrims have of their way, when they return to their daily lives.
