Why choose the Northern Way?<\/h2>\n\n

\n We find in this slope, a less overcrowded Way<\/b> than the French,\n which has a good signaling but on the other hand also has less\n infrastructure. It is the second longest route<\/b>, only behind the\n Silver Route, which will surround us with the tranquillity of the\n coastal and sailor villages that we will reach on our way and with a\n route that, except in the climbs to the mountains, where we will need\n to have our full strength, is characterized by being quite quiet.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Northern Way is possibly one of the options that will provide us\n with the most beautiful landscapes<\/b>, thanks to its discourse\n between sea and mountain, where the greenery of small Basque,\n Cantabrian, Asturian or Galician villages is blurred in the distance\n with the pristine blue of the Cantabrian Sea. In addition, its\n gastronomy has the reputation of being a successful memory of our\n journey, so\n the choice of this route is synonymous with sure success<\/b>\n in our desire to discover the magic of the\n Camino de Santiago<\/a> .\n <\/p>\n\n \n

\n

\n The North Way goes along the whole peninsular coast from east to\n west bordering the Cantabrian Sea along the main municipalities of\n northern Spain. It starts from Ir\u00fan in the direction to Compostela,\n leaving behind an indelible trail in cities such as San Sebasti\u00e1n,\n Bilbao, Santander or Gij\u00f3n until entering Galicia. From Gij\u00f3n we are\n introduced to the key decision of our pilgrimage<\/b>, since we\n have the option of taking a connection that guides us to Oviedo to\n continue along the Primitive Way or, on the contrary,\n continue the Northern Way to Avil\u00e9s<\/b> and enter Galicia through\n the town of Ribadeo, a coastal municipality of the Mari\u00f1a Lucense\n that separates us approximately 180km from our arrival in Santiago.\n <\/p>\n

\n Arrived at the locality of San Vicente de la Barquera, in Cantabria,\n there is the opportunity to follow a route with its own history, so\n important is that it has its own Jubilee Year, sharing this honor\n with the pilgrimages to Rome o Santiago de Compostela itself, this\n route is called the Lebaniego Way.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n
