Stage 9. O Cádavo – Lugo (32 km)

Although it may seem like a long stage, the truth is that these 32 kilometers that separate O Cádavo of the capital of Lugo will be a piece of cake compared to everything we have left behind, since the high mountains and the steep slopes characteristic of the province of Lugo are finally over.

The desire to reach the walled city will be latent throughout the stage, in which we will enjoy the beauty of the purest Galician countryside, with a multitude of small villages and archaeological remains with a thousand stories to show us.

This stage is part of the The Primitive Way. Would you like to walk it with your accommodation already booked? These organised trips include it: Primitive Way from Oviedo to Lugo, Camino Primitivo from Oviedo to Santiago de Compostela and Primitive Way from Lugo.

Lugo is encircled by the only completely preserved Roman wall in the world: over two kilometres of walkway you can stroll along the top of, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Inside, you'll find the cathedral, lively squares and a tradition of free tapas with your drink that makes the centre a great spot for a bite.
