After Loarre, we headed towards Rioja to sample one of our favorite wines. On the way, we made a stop at the Bárdenas Reales, a semi-desert natural region in Spain known for its unique landscapes and rock formations. The place is often called Spanish Monument Valley due to its resemblance to the iconic American desert, although much much smaller.


Gunther proved again to be a great little campervan, allowing us to explore remote areas, drive on sand paths without issues, and have some lunch in the middle of nowhere.
