Saint-Ferme - La Réole

The first stage of the Primitive Way is one of the most demanding. The ascent to Alto del Escamplero puts the pilgrim's strength to the test. It is a day of great beauty, that traverses the valleys and mountains of Asturias. The arrival in Grado, a lively town with an animated market and a pretty old quarter, is well-deserved rest. It is a stage that marks the hard and authentic character of the Primitive Way.
