Northern Spain

In June 1995 I spent a couple of weeks riding west across northern Spain. I caught the overnight ferry from Plymouth to Santander and headed along the north coast before venturing inland. In Villablino I got sick and so caught a bus to Ponferrada and then on to Santiago and the west coast.

I stayed in Plymouth (13 km), San Vicente de la Barquera (67 km), Potes (65 km), Riaño (61 km), La Robla (93 km), Villablino (85 km), Ponferrada, Santiago (2 nights), Muros, Finisterre (72 km), Camariñas (55 km), Santiago (2 nights) and Santander.
