Itinerary

DAY 1: Arrival in Oviedo

Arrive by your own means in Oviedo. Accommodation in Oviedo. Breakfast included.

Day 2: Oviedo to Grado/Grao (28 km) (Total: 28 km)

Following in the footsteps of Alfonso II the Chaste on his pilgrimage to the tomb of Saint James the Apostle, today’s journey begins at the Cathedral of San Salvador in Oviedo. From here, bronze shells embedded in the ground guide the way out of the city. The route passes through San Lázaro de Paniceres and Llampaxuga, home to a medieval hermitage, before reaching the first historical landmark—the 13th-century Gallegos Bridge over the River Nora. Crossing into the Las Regueras district, the path climbs towards Escamplero, where a pilgrims’ hospital once stood. The ascent begins on a paved road before continuing through a beautiful forest of chestnut and oak trees, known as Castañéu del Soldáu. After 12 km, the route descends to Valsera, where the paved road to Premoño begins. Here, on the left, stands the Chapel of Santa Ana, the only visible remnant of the former pilgrims’ hospital. The path continues through Paladín, crossing the Soto and Puerma rivers, before passing from Las Regueras into Grado. From this point, the course of the River Nalón—the longest and most abundant river in Asturias—comes into view. To reach it, the trail first crosses the village of L’Arache before leading over a bridge and onto the N-634 road, which brings you to Peñaflor, home to the Church of San Juan. A short distance ahead lies the village of Moscona, where the route follows a scenic path alongside the confluence of the Cubia and Nalón rivers. Finally, the journey concludes in Grado, where accommodation is available.

Day 3: Grado/Grao to Salas (23 km) (Total: 51 km)

Pilgrims departing from Grado will begin the day with steady climbs to San Juan de Villapañada and Alto del Fresno. After a refreshing break and once-enviable views—now somewhat diminished by the A-63—the route descends towards San Marcelo and La Doriga. From here, a slippery path leads down to the road at Casas del Puente before heading towards Cornellana, a village on the banks of the River Narcea. The journey continues towards Salas, passing through Llamas, Quintana, and Casazorrina. Accommodation in Salas.

Day 4: Salas to Tineo (22 km) (Total: 73 km)

The day begins under the archway connecting the Palace of Valdés Salas to its medieval tower. Upon leaving Salas, pilgrims follow a gently ascending path, softened by the oak and chestnut forest and the soothing presence of the River Nonaya. The trail leads into Bodenaya via the well-known Camín de Misa before crossing the national road. A short stretch of just over 1.5 km separates Bodenaya from La Espina, where the N-634 veers towards the Bay of Biscay. The Camino Primitivo continues straight ahead towards Tineo. Accommodation in Tineo.

Day 5: Tineo to Pola de Allande (31 km) (Total: 104 km)

Leaving Tineo, the terrain becomes more challenging as rolling valleys give way to wooded hills and mountains. The route ascends and descends through Borres, following a path parallel to a pine forest. Before reaching Samblismo, a milestone marks the alternative high-mountain route via the ruins of the Fonfaraón hospital, descending to Montefurado. However, this itinerary follows the main path leading directly to Pola de Allande. Accommodation in Pola de Allande.

Day 6: Pola de Allande to La Mesa (Approx. 22 km) (Total: 126 km)

Today’s route crosses the formidable Palo Pass, a demanding but rewarding climb. Despite the challenge, this stage is considered one of the most beautiful of the pilgrimage. The journey concludes in La Mesa. At the end of the day, there is a transfer back to Pola de Allande. Accommodation in Pola de Allande.

Day 7: La Mesa to Grandas de Salime (Approx. 18 km) (Total: 144 km)

The day begins with a transfer back to La Mesa. This leg of the journey includes a long descent towards the Grandas de Salime reservoir, marking the final stage within Asturias. Accommodation in Grandas de Salime.

Day 8: Grandas de Salime to A Fonsagrada (Approx. 28 km) (Total: 162 km)

At the summit of Alto do Acebo—named after the holly (acebo) that grows here—the Camino Primitivo crosses into Lugo, Galicia. From this point, 145 km remain until reaching Santiago. The scenery en route to A Fonsagrada is truly spectacular. Accommodation in A Fonsagrada.

Day 9: A Fonsagrada to O Cádavo (Approx. 26 km) (Total: 188 km)

The route briefly follows the LU-530, soon reaching the Fonte do Pastizal, a great spot to refill water bottles. The trail continues through pine forests, intermittently rejoining the road before connecting with another footpath. The eucalyptus trees that were a feature of the first two days in Asturias reappear on this stage. The highlight of the day is the Santiago de Montouto hospital, a 14th-century pilgrims’ hospital that remained in use until the early 20th century. The final kilometres seem endless, but eventually, Cádavo Baleira comes into view. Accommodation in Cádavo Baleira.

Day 10: O Cádavo to Lugo (Approx. 32 km) (Total: 220 km)

Leaving Cádavo Baleira, the route follows a gentle climb through Pradera, reaching the peak of Vaqueriza. A descent through pine forest leads to the Hermitage of Nuestra Señora del Carmen, near the entrance to Villabade.

Here, pilgrims can visit the Gothic church, often called the Cathedral of Castroverde. The last village before Lugo is Casas da Viña, after which the route enters the historic city through the A Chanca district.

Pilgrims pass through the San Pedro gate in Lugo’s ancient walls, next to a stone inscribed:

“This is where King Alfonso II the Chaste entered in the 9th century, giving rise to the first pilgrimage route to Santiago.”

Accommodation in Lugo.

Day 11: Lugo to A Ponte Ferreira (29 km approx.) (Total 249 km)

Leaving behind the Roman walls of Lugo, the route continues towards Ponte Ferreira. The path passes through San Román, Guntín, and Pacio, before reaching Ponte Ferreira. In San Román, the hermitage of San Román da Retorta is well worth a visit. Dating back to the 12th century, its original Romanesque façades and lateral columns remain intact. Nearby, the Church of Santa Cruz da Retorta, also 12th-century Romanesque, is another historical gem.

Upon reaching Ponte Ferreira, pilgrims cross a small Romanesque bridge with a single arch. Accommodation in Ponte Ferreira.

Day 12: A Ponte Ferreira to Melide (20 km approx.) (Total 269 km)

Today, the Primitive Camino merges with the French Camino in Melide, a significant milestone for many pilgrims.

Melide, an important crossroads on the Camino de Santiago, has a rich history reflected in its landmarks. The Pilgrims’ Hospital, established in 1502, now houses the Museum of the Terra de Melide. The Serra do Careón marks the entrance of the Primitive Camino into Terra de Melide, where archaeological remains such as forts, stone crosses, and paved paths reveal centuries of pilgrimage.

The Primitive Camino meets the French Way in front of the former Pilgrims’ Hospital, in Plaza del Convento, the town’s central square. Here, you will also find the Obra Pía de Santo Antón, which includes the Chapel of Santo Antón and the Town Hall.

Accommodation in Melide.

Day 13: Melide to Arzúa (14 km approx.) (Total 283 km)

Leaving Melide, the Camino passes through Boente and Castañeda before arriving in Arzúa, a town famous for its cheese-making tradition. This stage is relatively easy, with well-maintained paths of earth and stone, alternating with minor roads between villages. The terrain is mostly gently undulating, with occasional flat stretches. Accommodation in Arzúa.

Day 14: Arzúa to O Pino / Amenal (19 km approx.) (Total 302 km)

With almost 40 kilometres left to Santiago Cathedral, the most practical approach is to divide this leg into two days, spending the night in Santa Irene or O Pedrouzo.

The path from Arzúa to O Pino is a comfortable walk, with gentle slopes and trails that run parallel to the N-547.

Accommodation in O Pino / Amenal.

Day 15: O Pino / Amenal to Santiago de Compostela (22 km approx.) (Total 324 km)

The final stretch! As Santiago draws near, many pilgrims feel a mix of excitement and nostalgia—reluctant to finish yet eager to reach their destination. The route passes through leaf-strewn paths lined with eucalyptus, pine, and occasional oak trees. The first major landmark is Lavacolla, where medieval pilgrims would wash and purify themselves in the Lavacolla stream before entering Santiago de Compostela. A short ascent brings you to Monte do Gozo (Mount of Joy), where pilgrims catch their first glimpse of Santiago Cathedral. In the Jacobean Year of 1993, Monte do Gozo was developed into a pilgrims’ rest area, featuring a large monument, a fountain, and the Chapel of San Marcos. From here, the final approach is urban, passing through San Lázaro Quarter, Rúa de San Pedro, Porta do Camiño, Rúa das Casas Reais, and Praza de Cervantes. At last, you arrive at Santiago Cathedral, entering through the Holy Door (if it is a Holy Year) or the Azabachería Door otherwise. Accommodation in Santiago de Compostela.

Day 16: Santiago de Compostela

Primitive Camino from Lugo
(8 Days/7 Nights)
The Camino de Santiago, which originates in Oviedo and joins the French Way in Melide, is known as the Primitive Way. The name “primitive” is due to the fact that this is the first route of which there are historical references; King Alphonse II of Asturias and his retinue left Oviedo in the 9th century to visit the tomb of the Apostle St. James, discovered a few years earlier.

Primitive Camino from Oviedo
(16 Days/15 Nights)
The more popular French Camino does not pass through Asturias. Due to the number of holy relics in Oviedo Cathedral, this saying became popular back in the 12th century, "He that goes to Santiago and not to the Saviour, goes to see the servant and not the Lord." “Quien va a Santiago y no al Salvador, visita al lacayo, pero no a su Señor”

English Camino
(8 Days/7 Nights)
It was the preferred route for pilgrims from Scandinavia, the Netherlands, northern France and, above all, England and Ireland. As early as the 11th century, there is documentary evidence of landings on the Galician coast and the arrival of pilgrims in shallow-draft vessels. Some of these expeditions included crusaders, who stopped in Santiago to visit the apostle’s tomb before reaching Jerusalem. Many chose the English route, where they found shelter in monasteries and hospitals. The pilgrimage to the apostle’s tomb started from the ports of A Coruña or Ferrol. In the 15th century, this was the golden age of this beautiful route, rich in historical and artistic heritage.
