The climb up the cobbled road can be hard if you are not in good shape. You can go up the N-630 road.
The Via Ver Via de la Plata is also very close if you want to make a smooth ascent with a good surface.

Even though this small sacred monument isn't located on the classic Way of St. James through northern Spain, in light of the wayside cross standing here, some thoughts by Hape Kerkeling might be helpful as inspiration. The entertainer, who is particularly famous in Germany, walked the Camino Frances in 2001 and kept a diary, which was published under the title "Ich bin dann mal weg" (I'm off then). In it, he describes his personal encounter with God along the way as follows: "Yesterday, something inside me struck a huge gong. And the sound will reverberate. Sooner or later, this path shakes everyone to their very foundations. I know the sound will slowly fade, but if I listen carefully, I'll be able to hear this reverberation for a very long time to come."
