The CAMINO DE SANTIAGO, also known as the Way of St. James, is a renowned pilgrimage of medieval origin that sees pilgrims journey to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
Legend has it that the remains of the apostle St. James the Great were buried in the Cathedral and discovered by a shepherd in the 9th century. Due to the enduring popularity of the Camino de Santiago, it has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Today, more than a pilgrimage, the Camino de Santiago is a unique experience and a trip of a lifetime, with its routes attracting people from all over the world. In recent years, more than half a million pilgrims have completed the Camino annually.
The most popular of these routes is the Camino Frances, also known as the French Way. Because of this, Sarria, located 127 km from Santiago, is the top starting point for pilgrims. And this is where this walking pilgrimage will begin.
Cities and Walk Itinerary: Madrid → Lugo → Sarria → Ferreiros → Portomarin → O Hospital de la Cruz → Palas de Rei → Melide → Arzúa → O Pedrouso → Lavacolla → Santiago de Compostela → Fisterra → Muxia → Porto → Fatima → Lisbon
The Camino Frances is the most famous Camino de Santiago trail, featured in books and movies about the Camino, such as ‘The Way’ with Martin Sheen and ‘The Pilgrimage’ by Paulo Coelho.
While it’s not the oldest of the routes, it has been the most popular and well-known route ever since the Middle Ages. Its popularity is so great that 50% of the pilgrims walking the Camino do so on the Camino Frances over other routes.
Many pilgrims begin their Camino in the Galician town of Sarria and walk the last 100 km of the Camino Frances in about a week. The Camino Frances is the most social Camino, so you’ll be sure to meet fellow pilgrims and maybe make some friends for life as you experience the authentic local culture and food along the way.
