Debora was a wonderful guide. She had great communication with us before our walk offering to adjust at anytime if required as I had knee problems a few weeks before we were due in Oviedo. The walk was quite challenging in parts but we were so glad we did it as the scenery was amazing. Can’t recommend this walk or Debora enough.
Itinerary
Catedral de San Salvador de Oviedo
We will start our tour at the Cathedral, where I will explain the relation of Oviedo and the Cathedral with the Camino de Santiago. Since I am not a licensed guide, I am not able to guide you inside the Cathedral.
15 minutesMonte Naranco
You walk along the feet of Naranco, Oviedo's 'own' mountain, overlooking the city. Occasionally, you'll see vultures circling around. Right on top you can see the monument 'Sagrado Corazón de Jesús'.
45 minutesRoute of Santiago de Compostela
We will hike the first 12k of the "Camino Primitivo", the most original route of the Camino de Santiago. We start in Oviedo. After walking around 4k through the city, we'll enter the Asturian countryside where we will enjoy the pastures, hills and forest. We'll end our hike in a restaurant with a beautiful view on the Asturian mountains after which we'll take a taxi back to Oviedo.
