Oviedo → Grado

First stage of the Primitive Way. You depart from the cathedral of San Salvador in Oviedo, where medieval pilgrims began their journey. The path crosses historic city neighborhoods before entering the Asturian countryside, passing through Escamplero and Peñaflor. Rolling terrain with moderate ups and downs through chestnut forests and green meadows. Grado is a well-serviced town with a porticoed square perfect for resting.
