Stage Description

The last stage of the Way of St. James is a short and gentle route that culminates in the capital of Asturias. The route moves away from the mining valley to ascend lightly before approaching Oviedo for its final approach. The path becomes increasingly urban. Entering the city is exciting, and the itinerary leads the pilgrim directly to the heart of the old town. Arrival at the majestic Cathedral of St. Salvador, with its Holy Chamber, is the end of the journey and the reward for the hardship of the Cantabrian traverse. Here, the pilgrim can venerate relics and prepare to start, if desired, the Primitivo Way.
