The Rook of Seville - The Cabezas de San Juan

The final stage of the Forgotten Way is a gentle profile walk that takes the pilgrim to Oviedo. The path follows the valley of the Caudal River, crossing the Cuencas Mineras region. It passes through Mieres, one of the best mining villages. As it approaches Oviedo, the surroundings become more urban. Arrival in Asturias' capital marks the end of the stage. Oviedo is a monumental city with a pedestrian old town of great charm. Its Cathedral of San Salvador, with its Holy Chamber (World Heritage), is the spiritual heart of the route. Here, the Forgotten Way pilgrim joins the Primitivo Way. The city offers an infinite range of attractions, such as its preromanic churches, museums, and lively cultural and gastronomic life.
