I found that at certain moments the Camino Frances runs too much alongside busy roads. The N135 and the N120 are not your best...

    Did someone already take the train between Oviedo-León? The train track follows +/- the N630. Except between Pajares and Campomanes. It seems that the track engineers had fun during the design/construction. If you look at the map. After Pajares, the track curves in the mountains and has a lot of...
