Hi Ali,
There are probably lots of choices. However, for your consideration, I walked the Portuguese way from Porto in September, and never suffered a nose-bleed.

Does it have to be in Spain? It is said to be the most mountainous country after Switzerland (although having walked through Italy I would seriously dispute this ).
I would suggest one of the Chemins in France (Not the Le Puy route!).
Or parts of the Jacob's weg along the Danube. Stunning and VERY flat.
 
Altus 24 Liters daypack (DENON 24 H30)
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
...or if you're not hung up on reaching Santiago, you can hit the stretch of the Camino ending in Astorga...just back up the number of days you want to walk from there. Despite what some might say, the Burgos to Leon meseta portion has a special charm and will be very very very different from your Ponferrada to Santiago walk.

I would second the idea of the Portugues. There are a few hills but they are pretty small compared with the Camino Frances. Or the Camino Ingles for a shorter walk - a couple of stiff slopes but those are quite short and never get very high.
