Santa Cruz de Bezana
Camino del Norte
A Santander suburb with most services located off the camino. The albergues require a detour — a left turn at the church onto the CA-300, crossing back over the railway and the A-67. The official camino keeps straight at the church toward Mompía.
Día de la Cruz is celebrated on the 3rd of May and San Roque is celebrated on the 16th of August.
The only tricky part about Santa Cruz is getting to the albergue, which requires a detour from the official camino. It is left-hand turn at the church, at a junction with the CA-300. This will take you back over the railway, and then over the A-67. Immediately after the A-67, where it bends to the right, a set of stairs on your left take you down to the level of the N-611. If you choose this route note that it is not necessary to retrace your steps, this option will rejoin the official camino further down the N-611. The official camino keeps going straight at the church and to Mompia.
