Pilgrims on the road and friends along the way send me changes every day, and they go out the same day. The Camino de Invierno app carries all of it offline, and it's still being built — new features arrive routinely.
Get the appAfter Población de Campos, an alternate route branches off to Villalcázar de Sirga via Villovieco. This variant bypasses Revenga de Campos and Villarmentero de Campos — neither of which has much to offer — and follows quieter farm tracks through open countryside.
The main route follows the road more closely and passes through both villages. Either route reaches Villalcázar de Sirga; the Villovieco variant is slightly shorter and more rural. Both are flat and well-marked.

When following the river route, you'll come to a bridge that crosses over and leads to Ravenga. The river route will look like it's overgrown and impassable. If you Cross the bridge and turn right instead of going into the town, you can continue on the river path with the river on your right now instead of the left. This path continues in the shade to the Villovieco bridge.

Official camino now starts on the river, and turns off at Revenga. I started on river and then continued past the Revenga turnoff as recommended by a prior comment, but note it is overgrown and I got very wet feet on a dewy morning. Very pretty though, probably worth it

I’ve nothing against Revenga, but to walk the lovely track, stick to the riverside path and don’t go into Revenga. It will bring you to Villovieco just 1km away and the bar on the left as you approach is gorgeous. I had a friendly chat with the young guy working there, and enjoyed a most beautiful freshly baked orange cake and coffee.

Definitely take the river route. There is new construction that makes it even more direct than is shown on the app. Follow the signs that say Sendero del Rio Ucieza. There are services along the path as you draw adjacent to Villovieco. Look for the basketball court.

The river route made this the best day of the Camino so far for me. The path was mostly gravel. The river route was filled with tall trees and birds singing. We even heard frogs in conversation. Very serene and a nice flat “hike” through nature.

We took the River route which was lovely and well marked but judging by the distances in this app was 1.5km longer (roadside signs also say 1.5km longer).

Just after crossing the river a lovely bar with huge garden and lots of seats. Many food options and lovely place to have a break

Nice stop as you leave the village. I requested eggs and bread for breakfast and the owner happily obliged! Great coffee as well.

There is a wonderful stop after Villovieco. We stopped and had a glass of wine and a tortilla
