I think next time I have a bit of time, I’ll have a look at the GPS file and check…One question — are you sure the Munisteriu lternative is 3 km longer? I thought @jungleboy said it was 300.m longer?
As far as I know from being there a few days ago, there’s only the albergue and El Embrujo in Poladura and I assume you’ve tried both?Please let me know your thoughts, esp on accommodation in Poladura (day 2)
Yes, El Embrujo said no. And just now I tried the municipal (cos I always assumed they would say no) and they said “Noooooooooo”As far as I know from being there a few days ago, there’s only the albergue and El Embrujo in Poladura and I assume you’ve tried both?
Sounds good!Currently thinking, Pajares may be a better option, as the route for the taxi seems more straight forward than to Llanos. So we will do: Poladura-Pajares-Campumenos-Pola de Lena.
And Pajares is one with the swimming pool and jacuzzi so seems like the place to stay for 2 days, drop our heavy bags, and go with a light bag across the mountain!
From Campumenos maybe straight to Mieres?Sounds good!
Even better. Otherwise you’re doing Pola-Oviedo (31km+) or Pola-Mieres (which is a stage without many highlights) and Mieres-Oviedo.From Campumenos maybe straight to Mieres?
Thank you! And thanks to you pointing out Llanos (or actually Spanish people shorten it to Someron as I’ve recently found out) is a bit out in the schtick for taxi!Pajares is a much better stopping point — in fact there is public transport that stops there, but it probably has the same policy as the albergues. Using Pajares as the base puts your taxi much closer, probably in Villamanín.
So glad you sorted it out!
It’s Chanos in Asturiano and is written that way on many signs, just to throw a spanner into the works!Thank you! And thanks to you pointing out Llanos (or actually Spanish people shorten it to Someron as I’ve recently found out) is a bit out in the schtick for taxi!
The drawback with this plan is.... the Iglesia de Santa Cristina is only 2km away/half an hour stroll from Campomanes. They're only open from 11AM so it looks like I will have to visit the church on the day that I arrive in Campomanes, after walking from Pajares. Let's hope we still have energy for it! Or maybe the hotel may provide taxi........Thank you!

Current plan:
Leon - La Robla via the river way
La Robla - Poladura, transfer to Pajares
Poladura - Pajares
Pajares - Campomanes
Campomanes - Mieres
Mieres - Oviedo
Pronunciation please? Almost a soft J? Or more like "Ch" in chemise? If I say "Yanos" would that be offensive? Like referring to pinxtos as tapas?It’s Chanos in Asturiano and is written that way on many signs, just to throw a spanner into the works!
