Camino del Norte · Stage 29 of 36
A short morning over one climb, then the afternoon in one of Galicia's seven historic capitals: the cathedral, the Fonte Vella and the Álvaro Cunqueiro house-museum (€1 for pilgrims). Gronze's stage is Gondán to Mondoñedo; this is its last 5.6 miles. Strong walkers can go on to Abadín, 15.9 miles from Lourenzá. Ask at the tourist office under the cathedral arcades about the two ways out of town.
Basic details only. The Camino del Norte’s stages haven’t been researched in detail yet, so this page has what the trail page held: the places to stay, the day’s distance and climbing, and the planning notes.
