O Acebo

 This is a village with a tiny population, hardly any houses and a bar/shop that opens variable hours but, that may serve as refuge from the rain and allows pilgrims to recuperate strength after the last long climb from the mountain port of Asturias.

There are walkers who choose to begin their Camino from here. The easiest way to arrive is by taxi from A Fonsagrada or from a nearby village close to the Asturian border. For these hikers and for those who began their Way in Oviedo there are 14 kilometres that separate them from the first location of reference on the Primitive Way in Galicia.
