Ruta Del Besaya

[Isca-camigo]

It's an old pilgrimage route which runs from either two places Santander or Suances in Cantabria on the Coast to Carrion de Los Condes on the CF.
It would have been a route for pilgrims of old who arrived by boat and then walked to Santiago, which is exactly my intention next year. I have been looking at this for a while but found a website which gives me more than enough info,

Camino del Besaya 00 – Caminos

miscaminos.net

It might just have sold it to me.

On Ray and Rosa's website they give the gpx details for the route leaving from Santander,

In my OP the pilgrim walked the route in 2016, I have seen in various places groups walking it in 2017/2018, so signage on the ground may have improved.

Ivar just started a new sub-forum for the route, so all the info can be kept in one place for future planning!

A big thanks to you and Ivar.
I might not even walk this route, I still have a yearning to walk from Santo Toribio to Covadonga next year and continuing to Santiago, but the 1st link is so detailed it will help other people get an insight into the route.
