Wise Pilgrim APPCascantes is a small village straddling the main road, notable mainly for the Chapel of Celada at its entrance and a large power plant that dominates the skyline beyond. The town has basic services — a bar and small shop. You'll pass through a tunnel and over the railway on an elevated bridge before reaching the center.
In Cascantes the camino crosses the main road and follows a paved side road into and through the town. At the end, it rejoins the main road to La Robla. There's a large power plant at the edge of town.
There is an alternative route at the end of Cascantes signed "Por Llanos de Alba." This variant bypasses the entrance to La Robla and much of the busy road walking, taking you directly to the municipal albergue. If you're not interested in the town center, it's the better option.
