This stage has highs and lows, reaching 1,041 m above sea level (3,415 ft) and droping to 209 m (686 ft). The route goes past a wind farm on the tops and crosses over the dam that holds the water of the Salime Reservoir. Some spectacular views and changing countryside make this stage one to remember.
Fifth Stage Camino Primitivo - Borres to Berducedo
15.46 mi
+3,153 ft
-2,280 ft
9h 50
Moderate
Departure from Tineo (Asturias)
This stage has two route options: the High Road or the Low Road, otherwise known as Hospitales or Pola de Allande. One deciding factor might be the weather as the higher route is quite exposed. On the other hand, the lower route means more distance (17.9 km as opposed to 15 km). The recommendation is for the Hospitales route as it appears more authentic and has less tarmac to cover.
Seventh Stage Camino Primitivo - Grandas to A Fonsagrada
15.85 mi
+2,897 ft
-1,624 ft
9h 50
Moderate
Departure from Grandas de Salime (Asturias)
This stage starts gently but soon becomes tougher as it ascends to the border with Galicia. This is where we say goodbye to Asturias and begin our journey across Galicia towards Santiago de Compostela. This is a long day but full of interesting encounters with people and places along the way. The change of region is also noticeable in the markings and villages the route goes through.
Fourth Stage Camino Primitivo - Tineo to Borres
10.03 mi
+1,512 ft
-1,562 ft
5h 55
Moderate
Departure from Tineo (Asturias)
The day starts with a climb even though Tineo is already perched over the Villar valley. The route takes us along the southern flank of the Pico Navariego, staying high above the valley and the road below, finally dropping down to Obona and then a fairly flat stroll all the way to Borres.
Eighth Stage Camino Primitivo - A Fonsagrada to O Cádavo
14.93 mi
+2,123 ft
-2,858 ft
8h 45
Moderate
Departure from A Fonsagrada (Lugo)
The route is a delight with a succession of descents and ascents surrounded by domesticated rural scenery. If the weather is kind, this stage is as enjoyable as any other and much easier on the feet that the previous stage. This is authentic Galician hinterland with a warm welcome from folk all the way along the trail.
Third Stage Camino Primitivo - Salas to Tineo
12.24 mi
+2,605 ft
-1,207 ft
7h 55
Moderate
Departure from Salas (Asturias)
This stage is a bit shorter than the two previous stages and only has a gentle climb at the start. At the beginning, the route follows the river Nonaya and borders the Sierra de Bodenaya. After crossing the river Casandrasín, our journey takes us along the valley with the Sierra de Tineo up to our right. Plenty to see and a few villages to explore, just hope the rain stays off.
