Entrando a Luarca fai una pausa per ammirare cinque delle sue più belle Casas de los Indianos; immediatamente sul Cammino si trovano le Ville Excelsior, Cristina, Rosario, Argentina, e Barrera.

Essendo una città fluviale, i monumenti, le spiagge e le strutture ricettive di Luarca si trovano su entrambi i lati; è un fiume tortuoso e ci sono diversi punti di attraversamento. Come al solito, i panorami migliori si trovano a una camminata verso il promontorio dove si trovano il faro e la Capilla de la Atalaya.

Festività

La festa di Nuestra Señora del Rosario si celebra il 15 agosto e San Timoteo si festeggia il 22.

Il cammino

Lasciando Luarca, il Cammino sale un po' e si snoda in una zona residenziale della città. La strada si raddrizza e spiana e il Cammino la segue fino a Otur. Lungo la strada attraversa la N-634 e quando passa per Otur (che si trova sulla N-634) lo fa a sud della città.

Camino de Sant… (not verified)

I had to stay because I had to wait for a package but very glad it was in this friendly city. Stayed in Hotel Rico, highly recommended! The city has a beautifull big church and cemetery uphull, another cute chapel with an overview of the town, beautiful large botanical garden and nice trail to walk. Loved to be here for some days

Unfortunately, we heard from the other donativo owners that Casa Lua is closed (don’t know if that’s permanent but as of April 2023 it’s not open at the moment)

We are so glad we stopped to stay at Casa Lua, about 2 km after Luarca. Oscar, Lua, and their dogs welcomed us into their home and made us feel at home. The dorm was simple and clean, what really stood out was the delicious dinner, delightful conversation and welcoming atmosphere. This place is the magic stuff of the Camino.

There is a lovely donativo albergue about 1 hr walking from Luarca. It’s called Casa Lua and well worth the stop. Lovely hospitaleros and a fabulous dinner. Opens at 3. Highly recommend.

We recommend the lavanderia City Sec Avenida de Galicia that cost the same and the guy did a really good job.

Don’t miss this cute little town. Book ahead at the albergue or it’s €30 for one person at Oria Hostal with shared bathroom and own room.

Although no self-service laundromat features on any map search in Luarca, I found one near La Pelu De Isa in Luarca. €5 for a wash and €3 for a dry.
