Km 1,4 ‧ Villademoros
We follow a local road and, after a diversion a little farther ahead, we cross Palminero creek. We quickly find ourselves in San Cristóbal and neighbouring Querúas, alternating road N-632 and local roads.
Km 5 ‧ Querúas
We leave the road behind to zigzag down to the 19th century chapel of San Miguel de Canero, which was originally a monastery founded by the counts Xemeno Xemeniz and Aragonti. Furthermore, there used to be a pilgrim hospital, like in many other chapels along the Camino. After this quick visit, we join the national road again and follow it towards Luarca.
Km 6,3 ‧ Canero
From here, we will take a nice forest track that will take us to the river Esva, which we will easily cross, ditching the tarmac again after crossing the bridge next to a guesthouse. We will continue alternating some roads and paths until reaching Barcia.
Km 12,2 ‧ Barcia
After Barcia, we will keep on switching from roads to local tracks and vice versa until we come across the junction between La Atalaya road and La Carril street. We take the latter, which will take us to the centre of Luarca.
Km 15,3 ‧ Luarca
