Greetings,
Last fall we hiked the Camino Norte as far as Bilbao. We wish to continue along the coast this fall for about two weeks, although do not necessarily need to start at Bilbao. Any suggestions for a section somewhere between there and Ribadeo that minimizes walking on asphalt.
Thanks amigos.

I have just returned from walking the Norte to Ribadeo, and then around the coast to Ferrol and the Camino Ingles. I posted every day to my blog giving info on walking surfaces amongst many other things. I don't have time right now to read it through in order to make suggestions, but you are very welcome to take a look...

The stage after Bilbao is the worst. I would start somewhere around the beautiful Pobena beach.
