▷ for Villapañada (albergue) or △ to follow camino

San Juan de Villapañada and the albergue are about 700m up the road and off the camino.  If you spend the night there, retrace your steps to rejoin the camino.

El Fresno

1.30km to
Samarciellu

Warning!  There remain several yellow arrows directing you uphill from the church in El Fresno.  These are from a detour which existed during the construction of the nearby A63.  The camino has returned to it's original route which goes downhill from here.

Where the camino meets the road before El Fresno, a new information board indicates your options.  Descend to the left, following the old access road left behind from the construction of the adjacent highway.

Cabruñana [off camino]

km to

With the recent completion of road works in the area, Cabruñana has once again found itself NOT on the camino proper.  It is still possible to go there, and the albergue is still open.  To do so, go UP from El Fresno, and not down.  The route in this direction remains well marked.

Sobrerriba

NOTE:  Ignore the sign indicating the trail to your left when you get into Cornellana.  It will take you well out of your way.  Instead, continue straight into town along the main road.  Turn left at the 4th street and straight to the Monastery.  Albergue entrance on the right.

The construction of a new highway nearby does not appear as if it will be finished any time soon.  The camino leaves town from the road behind the monastery.  Arrows are weakly painted here.  Simply follow the road to the left of the monastery, and turn right at the first junction to follow the property line of the monastery.

600m after Sobrerriba, at a point where the houses crowd the road, the camino turns right onto a mountain track.  There is a shell on a house indicating the often missed turn. The track curves to the left and around the mount before descending near a sand pit and the town of Llamas.
