    Stage 1. Ribadeo/Burela

    85 kilometers. 1,590 positive meters.


    A good way to find inspiration at the beginning of a cycling trip is to pedal slowly following the universal yellow arrows of the Camino de Santiago. In Ribadeo the Natural Path of the Cantabrian Route begins and it is also the entrance to Galicia of the Camino del Norte or Camino de la Costa from Asturias, in both ways the Camino de Santiago is known, which runs along the Cantabrian coast from Irún to Santiago. of Compostela. The Jacobean route leaves the Cantabrian coast and faces the first stage through the interior of Galicia, the landscape, the language and the cultural signs change but the faithful yellow arrows remain along with the inseparable Compostela scallop along the Camiño Norte. The main purpose of including this variant in the trip is to connect with the San Rosendo Natural Trail and get to know the landscapes and towns that this ancient pilgrimage route runs between Mondoñedo and Foz. The connection point between the Camino de Santiago and the Natural Route is in Vilanova de Lourenzá, the old town of Puente from other times, when pilgrims sought asylum and protection in the inn of the Benedictine monastery of San Salvador. The meeting between the two routes is precisely at the medieval bridge of the Baos River, at the entrance to the town, and you could continue directly along the San Rosendo Natural Path towards the coast, but a visit to the historic city of Mondoñedo is essential , former seat of courts, manors and bishoprics, has an old town declared a Historic-Artistic Site with arcades, cobbled streets and facades decorated with shields and coats of arms.
