Camino del Norte App

Pilgrims on the road and friends along the way send me changes every day, and they go out the same day. The Camino del Norte app carries all of it offline, and it's still being built — new features arrive routinely.

Must stay at El Texu

This has been my favorite stay on the Norte/Primitivo so far. It's clean, welcoming... Great dinner and breakfast and the Dutch couple who run it are amazing! Laundry service and sheets/towels are included! Stop here! You'll feel like you're part of a family.

Recommending Bar Paris

Bar Paris, at the far end of town, is a really nice, friendly spot to pause for coffee and food. Also had a good spot across the road if you want to sit outside, and an atm next door.

Albergue El Texu

Hi there,

I'm missing Albergue El Texu in the list of Albergues in La Espina. We offer communal dinner and breakfast. We have 18 beds and 1 private room. The price of a bed is 15 euro and the food and drinks are donation based. We have a living room where you can relax and play games. Our motto is: feel at home :)

We love to welcome you all!

Bar La Vane a great place to stop for a bite

I stopped here for Cafe con leche and tortilla on my way from Salas to Tineo and it was a great choice. Friendly people and fast service.
