Valverde de la Virgen

Når du kommer til Basilica de la Virgen del Camino, krydser du den trafikerede vej og fortsætter ad en lille adgangsvej. Efter 300 meter står du med valget mellem to ruter. De gule pile her er forvirrende, og der er ingen officiel skiltning, der angiver dine muligheder. Afstandene er angivet fra La Virgen del Camino til Puente de Órbigo, hvor de mødes.

Den SCENISKE RUTTE - 27 KM

Denne variant kaldes den naturskønne rute, og den tilføjer

VEJRUTEN - 24,6 KM

Den officielle camino-rute kaldes ofte vejruten på grund af dens nærhed til vejen. Det er den korteste af de to og giver lidt eller ingen fred fra trafikken. For at tage denne rute skal du fortsætte ligeud.

I’ve been walking since SJPP and this walk from Leon to San Martin was by far the worst walk in the entire Camino. By a busy highway with trucks roaring past, path strewn with garbage and litter, walking through industrial wastelands. Just awful. Take the scenic route or if you are not a purist (ie must have continuous footsteps) take a bus to San Martin and spend the extra time in León. But do something to avoid this road walk. You’ve been warned!

Do take the scenic path! there are so many beautiful flowers along the road. Have taken lots of pictures.

We took the route on the road which was horrible, noisy and dirty. Not taking the scenic route meant we stayed in Villadangos.The food at the Pradera was just awful and the hostess at the Hostal Alto Paramo was so rude that we couldn’t recommend it as a place to stay. In summary, the town of Villadangos should be avoided.

Ok, I’ll admit, I read the reviews and thought ‘that’s just tired pilgrims’ opinions, how bad can it be!’ It’s bad, take the scenic route.. imagine not taking the river route to Burgos and multiply it by 50. There is no reason at all I can think of for anyone taking the ‘traditional’ route. There is nothing on this route people, I mean nothing. I stayed in Avenida Three hostel, if you don’t believe me then read that review too!

Unless you need urgent access to a highway or you are fond of studying international industrial building architecture, take the Scenic Route.

The Road Route says what it means on the tin. It’s by the road the entire time. It’s loud, busy & not much fun.

I got hassled for cash coming out of “Virgin” while I was popping thru the underpass. It was a little lonely & not super fun.

Can anyone tell me if the scenic and road routes are marked as to which is which? On the map it looks like the road route is the north one but hard to tell. I’m heading out of Leon tomorrow morning early and like to be prepared. Gracias!

Although not next to a buddy road this route is rough on feet due to being mostly on paved road. 😔

There was a map and then when paths separated signs in each direction

I took the scenic route and it was pleasant. Not sure why people complained? Not the petite walk off the Camino but perfectly fine.
