Lugo to Santiago 3 days??

I found this page to be the most useful for the galicean piece hhttp://www.jacobeo.net/index.php?m=eta ... b=&pad=139. You can find the Primitive route completely described on openstreetmap.org.

Which is the 'REAL' Primitivo route by the way? I have read different versions.

Depends what you call "REAL"! Remember that "Real" in Spanish can be translated as "royal" and the way taken by Alfonso II certainly went through Lugo. He would then (Ithink almost certainly) stick to the old Roman Road, the Via Romana Lucus Iria Flavia, through San Román de Retorta, over the Rio Ferreira by the Roman bridge in Mosteiro and on to Melide. There is another 'Roman' bridge at Ribadiso so for me that would be a guide to the 'Camino Real'. Alfonso II would not have been roughing it! - More likely travelling with full royal retinue, just to make a show!

I would have thought that the Melide route would be easier to break up into equal days for you than going by Sobrado. Lugo to As Seixas = 35k? (with alternative accomodation at San Román de Retorta or Mosteiro.) Then break the remainder where convenient after Melide because there are plenty of alternatives on the Francés.
Blessings on your walking
