The Road

Dans Ontón, le camino monte un ensemble d'escaliers pour vous ramener au niveau de la N-634, à un endroit où la route fait un virage serré et où des flèches indiquent deux directions distinctes.

Option 1 : Le long de la N-634 par Mioño & le tunnel- 7.1

Pour suivre le nouvel itinéraire, il suffit de suivre le virage de la route et de ne pas la quitter pendant qu'elle se tortille et tourne. Il passera sous et au-dessus de l'A-8 à plusieurs reprises avant d'arriver à Mioño.

Option 2 : L'ancien camino - 14,8

L'ancien itinéraire du camino traversait la N-634 à ce virage, et suivait la CA-523 en direction de Baltezana. Le chemin est encore bien marqué, mais a été largement abandonné au profit d'un itinéraire nouvellement balisé le long de la N-634.

The “short route” is dangerous. I hitchhiked to Castro Urdiales because of the hills and sharp curves, with no space for pedestrians, just felt unwise. They should at least add a die walk for pilgrims.

Albergue Tu Camino was great. Average facility, but the hosts were great and the spirit of the Camino was super. I have not really experienced that spirit on the Norte thus far.

The new main camino route (N634, option 1) is dangerous. Poorly marked, no safe road shoulder to walk in many sections, multi highway intersections with no safe way to cross. The good...we survived and it is shorter than the original route.

It's a nice walk, very few cars and people, with one long climb that's not steep though. Didn't see any bars or anything really (fountain, shop, etc) until santullán.

Always on the road, often with no space for pedestrians, cars driving fast. I was scared most of the time. For me it was the worst part of el camino since Irun. I would definitely NOT recommand this option.

Lovely albergue. Donativo dinner is one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten. Highly recommend staying here.

Friendly hospitalero, option to buy drink from his source. Alberque is quite tinny, no space around a very close to frequented road. 7€ bed, dinner donativo, breakfast 3€

Guten Tag, leider macht die Herberge erst ab 1. April auf.

The N634 is short by almost half, and the description says coastal, which it technically is, but it is scary! The Camino is on the asphalt roadway, with virtually no shoulder and blind curves. If you can't see the cars (and there were many), they can't see you! In addition, where there is a run off at times for water that you can walk in, there was tons of tree debris (leaves, branches, dirt), refuse and clay rocks. A couple in a car actually stopped to offer us a ride because they thought we were lost. It's not great. We would suggest taking Option 2, the older Camino trail.

I read the comments here, so I took the longer route which was a very welcome departure from the busy road - walking though nature on a almost deserted forest road for the first half, and on a pleasant bike path the other. Others who I met later said the shorter option wasn’t as bad though, so I guess it depends how much time you have and what you prefer!
