01º DIA - CAMINHO PRIMITIVO DE SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA.

The Awakening of the Primitive Way The starting point of the Primitive Way follows the exact footsteps of King Alfonso II, the Chaste, who in the 9th century marched towards Santiago de Compostela to confirm the miraculous discovery of the apostle's tomb. It is a long stage that mixes the initial urban environment with the rapid transition to the Asturian countryside, culminating in the challenging climb to the legendary parish hostel.
