Gronze's longest day, through empty, rolling country to the route's high point, about 2,330 ft and unsigned. Almost everyone splits it: at Miraz, 9.3 miles in, or at A Roxica or A Cabana, 15.4 to 15.8 miles in. There are no services for about 6 miles after Miraz. The As Cruces route is 4.8 miles shorter but has even fewer services. Out of season, beds along the way can shrink to one or two places, so check ahead.
