The 'Camino de Santiago' or 'Way of St. James' is the Pilgrimage eventually ending at the Cathedral of Santia-go de Compostela in Galicia, North West Spain. Legend has it that this was the Apostle James's missionary route and that he was buried in Santiago.

People walk the Camino de Santiago for various reasons. Some for religious reasons, some for closure on a life event and others just for the adventure. But one thing is for sure, no one is unchanged after a Camino!

The full route - more than 800 km and approximately 40

what is the camino all about days' walk - is not for everyone, therefore we offer you the opportunity to walk any distance or amount of days that best suits you.

To get your Compostella at the end of the route you have to walk at least 100 km or 200 km by bicycle or horse.

We give you the opportunity to walk the Camino at your own pace, alone or with fellow pilgrims with peace in mind knowing your accommodation is booked at the end of each day - so no rush to get to your destination before the Spanish Siesta starts at 14:00 every afternoon!

Buen Camino!
