Stream of Valdearroyo to Olive

The route that connects Arroyo de Valdearroyo with Olea is a pleasant stroll through the Cantabrian countryside of Campoo. The profile is mainly flat, with gentle undulations, and the road follows along the Ebro Reservoir. The landscape is of great beauty, with the waters of the reservoir on one side and the mountains of the Cantabrian Mountains on the other. The most important point in the stage is a visit to Fontibre, where the official birthplace of the River Ebro can be found. It's a beautiful place, with a crystal-clear spring that gives origin to Spain's most voluminous river. After visiting Fontibre, the road continues until the small town of Olea. It's a traditional town with a beautiful Romanesque church. Its peaceful atmosphere is perfect for the pilgrim's rest.
