Wherever you go, there you are.
- Time of past OR future Camino
- Fall 2000 - Frances;
Summer 2001 - Norte/Frances/Fisterra;
Spring 2015 - SJPdP>Irun(GR10)>SdC((Norte)>Fisterra/Muxia
We are walking the Norte route from Irun next year, and will probably then take the Primitivo. I have a couple questions about starting and ending the Primitivo.
My understanding is that the turnoff is in Villavicosa, to Oviedo. Is it possible to walk from Gijon to Oviedo instead? We'd like to stay by the sea as long as possible.
If it is possible, is there anything - walking/road conditions, distance, accomodations, etc - that would recommend one alternative over the other?
Also, we would like to avoid as much of the Frances as possible. Is it possible to cut back over to the Norte in, or after, Lugo? Or any other possible walking track (or country road) route directly to SdC after Lugo, bypassing the Frances entirely?
Thanks,
Caplen
