The Camino Lebaniego links the Bay of Biscay at San Vicente de la Barquera with San Miguel de Escalada, rising through the Picos area and onto the León plateau. Periods around May, June, and September align with milder temperatures, longer daylight, and generally settled walking across most sections. Expect damp Atlantic influence on the coast, quick-changing mountain conditions near Potes and Espinama, and sunnier, more exposed stages inland toward Riaño and Gradefes.
