Pensión Karama

Pensión Karama in Peón

Overview

Pensión Karama in Peón offers private room accommodation for pilgrims on the Camino del Norte. Situated directly on the Camino route in the small hamlet of Peón, within the municipality of Villaviciosa, this welcoming pensión puts pilgrims in the heart of some of the most beautiful Asturian countryside on the Way of St. James.

Conveniently placed between Villaviciosa and Gijón, Peón sits on one of the more demanding inland stages of the Norte. The surrounding hills, forests, and rural villages make the approach one of the most scenic stretches of the entire route.

Pilgrim Insight

Pensión Karama suits pilgrims who want a quiet, personal stay away from busier town-centre albergues. The hamlet of Peón is tiny and peaceful, while the famous Iglesia de Santiago de Peón — a Romanesque church dating from the early 13th century — stands just a short walk away.

Furthermore, the local family atmosphere and direct Camino location make it a naturally social stop at the end of a tough hill stage. Note: Peón is a small community with limited services — stocking up on supplies in Villaviciosa before arriving is advisable.
