North Route

road from the north to compostela We are starting the North Way to Santiago de Compostela, older than the French Way. Those who came from Europe through the Cantabrian coast and arrived in the north of the Iberian Peninsula came to the Western capital this way.

The first pilgrimages came from Asturias about the 10th century. Pilgrims arrived through the Basque Country and walked round green lands as a promise of the green Galicia of the Apostle. They would pass along Oviedo to honour the Saviour and either followed the Primitive Way on the inside or went on with the Cantabrian Route and the North Way or High Way. In this Way, Ribadeo was the main entrance to Galicia.
