Stage of the Camino
Stage Description
This stage is a long journey that connects the two major industrial cities of Asturias. The route is mainly flat but runs through a highly humanized landscape with industrial complexes and urbanized areas. It's an intermediate stage that demands patience from pilgrims. Arrival in Avilés is a pleasant surprise. Its old town, one of the best preserved in Asturias, with its porticoed streets and palaces, and the modern Niemeyer Center, offer a contrasting architectural interest.
