Ramal "Complementario" desde Sarria a Peruscallo

Time of past OR future Camino
The Northern one in 2015 and I plan repeat it in next march.
For 3 years there has been a variant called "Complementary" from Sarria. When leaving Sarria and just past the Ponte Aspra, next to a railroad level crossing, there are 2 milestones together, the one on the right marks the road that joins Belante-Peruscallo-Leiman (according to the guide) with the old one. The Barbadelo hostels have erased this indication (the following are OK). This was the oldest Camino that passes through Maside and Meixente and is 1.8 km shorter in that section.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Transport luggage-passengers.
From airports to SJPP
Luggage from SJPP to Roncevalles
That's great information! Thanks!
 
it takes you up to the highway, something you avoid on the barbadelo route, and you miss the barbadelo church and pleasant walk through mercado. however, it's an option, and i'm sure it's lovely.

Camino is more than churches. The Camino is you wherever you be.
 
Hola F. Javier, para hablar debes tener algo más de conocimientos del Camino, el "Camino Complementario" por los pueblos de Maside, Barreiros... no es más antiguo que el de Barbadelo. Al contrario el de Barbadelo es del siglo XII donde ya se hablaba de él en el Códice Calistinux, incluso antes de nombrar a la famosa Sarria. El camino por Maside nace en los siglos oscuros del Camino de Santiago( donde podían hacer el Camino 50 o 100 personas en todo un año) y se mantiene hasta el siglo XX. El cura Elías Valiña al hacer la nueva delimitación opta por la opción más histórica y lógica, y ahora la UNESCO ha abierto está ruta obsoleta y sin mucho sentido la verdad.

....y esto ya es por casualidad, pero haciendo uno de mis Caminos (en el 2018) yo, con mis propios ojos vi como el chico que vende plátanos y zumos por donativo en el medio de los robles que suben a Barbadelo, a primera hora de la mañana estaba con un spray pintando esas flechas en el mojón, por lo que dudo que fueran los albergues de Barbadelo quien pintasen esas flechas.

Saludos y Buen Camino.
