Hi Sandra,
Perhaps some of these website will help you plan your route.
Although the Xacobeo website starts the Primitivo at Acrivo, you can walk the Primitivo from Oviedo as well. And don't miss the Camara Santa (Holy chamber) in Oviedo that holds the Sudarium - the 2nd most Holy Christian relic after the Shroud of Turin - and a number of other ancient relics.
You could also walk the Camino el Salvador (120kms from León to Oviedo) which is the route taken by medieval pilgrims wanting to visit the Camara Santa in Oviedo. There is an old saying - "Quien va a Santiago y no al Salvador, visita al criado y deja al Señor" (Whoever goes to Saint James and not to the Saviour, visits the servant and misses the Master.”)

Last year tthere was a report that the Asturian government was going to repair and refurbish 107 kilometers of the Primitive Camino to make the route more pilgrims-friendly. New Camino signs, potable water fountains, rest spots and sanitation facilities were to be installed in the seven Camino stages from La Espina to El Acebo. The work was expected to be completed by June 2008 as well as the new albergues in Tineo, Aviles and Salas. Also, the construction of a new albergue in Lena was been approved.
