Camino sucks – getting away from the car roads | Camino del Norte from Cudillero to San Pedro de la Ribera – Day 23
On the Day 23 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the village Cudillero to San Pedro de la Ribera beach in Asturias. We finally decided to take our first day off and stay in the camping L’Amuravela in Cudillero. We felt like we needed it a lot by our physical state. And it was even weird not to wrap up our tent and staff in a day it was already like an everyday habit. But it felt so nice. We explored a little bit of this fishing village which was very unusual located in the couloir. Some houses were really old and were threatening to fall…

The first autumn day and getting to Oviedo |Camino del Norte from Villaviciosa to Cudillero – Day 22
On the Day 22 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the village Villaviciosa to Oviedo and then to the town Cudillero in Asturias. We woke up absolutely broken apart even though we slept well that night. All the muscles were sore and the shoulders and back were aching. Everything was telling us to stop that day but we couldn’t. We had to move forward because in that town we didn’t have what we needed for cooking. And plus it was Sunday when everything was closed and we had no chance to find even some small shop where they could be selling camping gas. So we had…

Very bright and sunny day on Camino del Norte| From Ribadesella to Colunga in Asturias, Spain – Day 21
On the Day 21 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we hiked from the village Ribadesella to Colunga in Asturias. Even though the day before was an easy one and we didn’t make lots of kms, in the morning we still felt broken apart. And now we were thinking of taking a day off the trail for one day. But we knew that we have to continue on and partly because we didn’t have the camping gas to cook on. And that is a really big deal for us. The campground was quiet except for the jackdaws that were disturbing our sleep in the middle of the night. Maybe…

Going hungry on the Camino! | Camino del Norte from Bufones de Pria to Ribadesella in Asturias, Spain – Day 20
On the Day 20 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the Bufones de Pria to the town Ribadesella in Asturias, Spain. The place we found for a camp was nice and secluded. Only the dogs were barking all night and disturbing our sleep. But nevertheless we slept well and at least the tractor didn’t come to work at that field in the early morning, we were a bit worried about that. So we set up the alarm at 7.30 am but got up an hour later cause we find it’s so hard to wake up when it’s dark outside. And now when the day was getting…

Hiking through the Earth of Bufones in Asturias, Spain | Camino del Norte from Celorio to Bufones de Pria – Day 19
On the Day 19 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the town Celorio to Bufones de Pria in Asturias, Spain. We left the camping Troenzo traditionally late and we felt like it was getting harder and harder for us to wake up – the tireness of walking many days in a row was accumulating and getting over us. The muscles were chronically aching, not much but constantly. And we were thinking about taking a day to rest because we didn’t make a one in the whole Camino. Just the spot had to be suitable. The night was cold and we had to wear our warm clothes…

Hiking through Wonderful Bufones de Arenillas and beautiful beaches in Asturias, Spain | Camino del Norte in Pendueles, Llanes, Celorio – Day 18
On the Day 18 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the campsite “La Paz” in Pendueles to the campground “Playa de Troenzo” in Celorio. We woke up pretty late to a cloudy morning in a beautiful location at camping La Paz. We were more than happy with it because of its incredible location between the two beaches and unusual concept. It was extremely hard to wake up to the gloomy weather that was staying lately and you know when you like the place you kind of don’t hurry to leave. We tried to pack everything up as quickly as possible and get on the trail. The…

Spectacular Atlantic Oceanside and the Most Secluded Campground | Camino del Norte from Pechón to Pendueles – Day 17
On the Day 17 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the village Pechón to the Campsite “La Paz” in Pendueles. We slept very well with the sound of the ocean wash. We left the camping at a very late hour – 12 a.m. We were filming my favourite hairstyles for hiking(the bathrooms were very spacious and the light was perfect for that) and also because we slept in a bit. The lady on a reception gave us a 10 percent discount and put us a camping stamp which was very nice, now this special place will stay in our credential as well. The start of the…

The most scenic campsite ever at the atlantic oceancoast!? | Camino del Norte – Day 16
On the Day 16 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the town San Vicente de la Barquera to Campsite “Playa Las Arenas”. The start of the day was very bright and sunny very contrasting to the yesterday’s weather. And it was obvious that it’s gonna be hot. The camping was a bit noisy and overcrowded and so at night there were some disturbing noises. In the early morning we heard something moving outside close to our tent and when we looked out we saw the hedgehog attracted by the food leftovers, most probably skin of the peach. We thought it was a cat cause there are…

The hottest and most tedious day | Camino del Norte from Santillana de Mar to Comillas – Day 14
On the Day 14 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the village Santillana de Mar to the town Comillas at the oceancoast. We rested well and with fresh powers started the day. We left the camping Santillana a bit late at 11 am but we knew we will be on time because we saw that the trail is going on the car asphalt roads and it always means that it will be easier. Right from the start the route was going up and down and up and down all the time. And even though we walked mostly on asphalt routes that day at the end the…

Escape the city and beautiful camping | Camino del Norte from Santander to Santillana de Mar – Day 13
On the Day 13 of our Camino de Santiago del Norte we got from the village Somo close to Santander to the village Santillana de Mar. That morning we got up very early and quickly left the camping. We didn’t want to stay in this dirt for no longer and found a good spot on the beach to cook our breakfast. We weren’t sure whether it was a falling tide or a tidal wave but the water was coming at us and we decided to back up to the dry sand to be safe. The morning was absolutely stunning from the beach de Loredo with the foggy views of the…
