Camino del Norte
10.8 km, 178 m up and 133 m down, through 3 places, 1 of which has somewhere to sleep. Where you stop is up to you.
Every place on the path in order, with the distance from La Revilla. Most are too small to sleep in — a fountain, a chapel, a bar that may or may not be open — but they are what the day is actually made of.
A hamlet recognizable mainly for its golf course. The camino now bypasses this area on its rerouted path to San Vicente de la Barquera.
After crossing the estuary into San Vicente, the camino proceeds directly through the roundabout at the end of the bridge, and in so doing it doesn’t really go into town. To get to any of the services and transportation, turn right at the roundabout and then retrace your steps to leave San Vicente.It climbs slightly and crosses over the A-8 into Acebosa.
Entering Acebosa, the way isn’t entirely clear. Turn right when you get to the road and follow it all the way to Hortigal.
At the fork at the far end of town, keep to the right and follow the road through Estrada and on to Serdío.
Keep on the road through Serdió and be mindful that signs for the Camino Lebaniego are tempting you to leave the trail. Simply keep on the road towards Pesués, passing under the A-8 and over the Río Nansa turn left at the first house. Note: prior to arriving, you pass near Muñorrodero with bar 100m off the camino.
Distance, climb and descent are measured along the GPS track for this camino — 186 recorded points across this span, the same track the app carries. The town-to-town figures in my data put it at 8.1 km.
