Since my pilgrimage to Santiago last year with the club's mountain Frese had not returned to coincide more with them and told me earlier this year that would make a pilgrimage from Oviedo Covadonga, which as I pointed out, which would involve many colleagues with whom I went to Santiago, so do not hesitate a moment and I signed up, the truth is that what little religion I am lately seem all a monk, with all due respect to the Friars if they still there are some that I have not the faintest idea.
I've been almost ten years or so making it, at first alone and lately with some other friends but I always do from Gijón, I recommend to everyone is beautiful, but I have not posted on the blog because the two last year we did a bike, but this year I promise to hang on foot touches.
At about quarter to nine in the morning of day 30 January 2011 arrived at the club ash grove that would be our starting point, and as loans to see all the comrades who made the Camino de Santiago, I had not seen him more since then, so after kissing hugs and laughter at 9 am we start on the bus route to the town of Covadonga (Oviedo), which is slightly above the cemetery on the same Oviedo Arenales, a dark day in winter and very poor prospects undertake our walk.
The route starts right from the Chapel of Covadonga to the right where we can find a panel indicating the eating of the route, the first meters run by road to soon divert to the left, next to the houses of El Calero, after passing a source with its sink called the Mermeya, here we take a deviation to the right to reach the village of Los Llanos to soon reach the Llovera.
The first meters of the day, before picking up the trail.
A true countryman of great kindness, he told us if we were to walk chiflaos this day
At this point the fog that had the distance and black was the sky we really enjoy the scenery and the photos are so poorly made and could be more or less in this area we started to rain and would not leave us and the whole day. Soon the path that we were finished at a crossroads in which we continue to face in the direction of the antennas of the big, all this step does not have any losses at any time as it is ideally suited at all times. We continued along the top
very gentle walk up to the hamlet of Fields for a road called the Escobal and we will not leave until you reach the small village of La Paranza, this village is the border of the councils of Oviedo and Siero we found a nice paisanín (see photo) fully warm jacket and hat with scarf course wearing clogs slippers and that is how life will be walked through the villages and told us we had to be chiflaos to walk with the day to the truth that the poor man was absolutely right hand, a character man and of great kindness.
In this small village of La Paranza was in the sixteenth century a malatería in which it welcomed the leprosy patients in the councils of Oviedo, Siero and Langreo.
now proceed and unable to close the umbrella of a well-marked ridge and low altitude where we crown a small hill about 500 meters left, leaving the Holy Medero summit (525m), at this point we make a brief stop to group all and eat some fruit and a drink. In descending this hill we found some abandoned settlement and the ruins of a small chapel.
now continue down to the houses of the Teyer and the coil, from this point climb almost to the Candaval trig point (518m), which we appreciate very close, in this particular point we struck a good hailstorm that soon we left to continue raining the rest of the way, this particular point that we were passing by, is situated on road tunnels AS-17 de Siero to Langreo.
continue our journey and entered the outskirts of the pretty village of Molledo and as noted they won the lottery recently tiny flats at the entrance of the village, who saw and who sees it, good for them. Luckily when we entered the village and are open Molledo the only bar in town, where there was only one person taking a wine and suddenly we 35 pilgrims and fanatics (that if highly educated) to request like crazy, that if beer if cafés, if wines, the probe Señoriño was already advanced in years with great kindness and patience we were covering all peacefully as it should be, a charming gentleman.
After taking a good beer fresh and delicious donuts eaten check by one of the pilgrims who had the great detail of loading all the way to a box Made for them the same then distributed among the group, great detail and a great baker, yes sir. Molledo
Since it is all soft and llanea decline until the end of the road, continue about 800 yards down the local road again Molledo to take a path that crosses the creek farmer Sink, who fell with so much water these days it rained barely appreciated the poor sink, this way we also see the remains of what was once the mill of the Pinto, soon went out to the AS-246 where in a short time will lead to the throat, where Richard was waiting for us to return by bus back to La Frese.
