Have a look at this link to see stages on the Norte. http://caminodesantiago.consumer.es/los-caminos-de-santiago/del-norte/
Note that it ends at Arzua, where the Norte joins the Frances which is still one long days walk or two short ones from Santiago.

Personally I really liked the town of Luarca, but starting there might make for a lot of long days to get to Santiago on time.

I use Alltrails a lot here in the US, in Iceland, on the Via Podiensis and a bit on the CF. Will it be useful on the Norte? For example, people here say the "warm up" from Biarritz to Irun (or...
