Coinciding with the Jubilee Year 2017, Luis Montero Merino stars in a solidarity pilgrimage, from the municipality of Alba de Tormes to Caravaca de la Cruz.
The objective of this cyclist is to raise funds destined to the Association of Asperger of Salamanca.
It is expected that Luis Montero will reach Caravaca de la Cruz on September 14, after completing a total distance of 768 kilometers, along eight stages starting from Alba de Tormes, Ávila, Torrijos, Tembleque, El Provencio, Alcaraz, Letur and Caravaca.
Luis Montero will make this tour by bike and donate all the collection to the mentioned association.

"My two passions are to ride a mountain bike and my faith through Holy Week. Having made the Camino de Santiago twice, I have decided to undertake something different: my intention is to join three routes in one: Teresian Way, Santiago and Camino de Caravaca de la Cruz ", explains the protagonist.
"The first two routes will be the reverse of how they are usually done, because this time I go south. This route will be done alone and without external support." The budget, ie my own expenses, will be financed by me in all of it, none of the contributions will be used as a resource for the route, "he adds.
From the Department of Tourism of the City of Caravaca have wished Luis Montero luck and congratulated him for this initiative, which joins solidarity, sport and tourism, as in addition to collaborating with the Asperger Association of Salamanca, is making a promotion of the Year Jubilar 2017 by many points of the Spanish geography.
