Where will you visit on the Highlights of the Camino tour?

St-Jean-Pied-de-Port

There is only one place to start your highlight tour of the Camino and that is of course St Jean Pied de Port in France. This iconic town of the Camino has been welcoming pilgrims for centuries.

From here you will follow the Napoleon route as you make your way up over the Pyrenees and cross the border from France into Spain arriving into the town of Roncesvalles.

Continuing on your Camino journey you will make your way to Pamplona taking in some of the best views of the Pyrenees and Navarra region.

Pamplona

From Pamplona, you will make your way across the La Rioja region, known worldwide for its wine. Here you will get to experience and sample the wine at Bodega Irache – the famous Wine Fountain of the Camino de Santiago.

Passing through many vineyards on this section this will not be your opportunity to sample the local produce. This walking section ends in Logrono, where you can sample some of the best wine and food in the region and relax.

Logrono

From Logrono then we travel across the Meseta to Leon, the capital of Castilla y Leon. Here we will stop for some sightseeing.

Visit the beautiful Cathedral of Leon, or wander around the San Martin neighbourhood and be mesmerized by the wonderful architecture from over the years.

Whilst there you will also have time for lunch in one of the many excellent cafes or restaurants. Be sure to sample some of the local dishes for meat lovers such as Morcilla de León (black pudding), cooked maragato or Botillo del Bierzo. For those who prefer fish then the Trout Soup is a very typical dish of the Leonese.

After your free time and lunch, we will continue our journey across the mountains of Leon into the region of Galicia and the starting point of the last 100kms to Santiago de Compostela, Sarria.

Walk the Last 100km of the Camino Frances – Sarria to Santiago

Join pilgrims as they start their journey here or from further back, and quickly make new friends and share stories of your travels so far. Traversing the Galician countryside your excitement will build as you get ever closer to the end goal, Santiago de Compostela.

Be sure on your last day walking to take time at the Mount of Gozo to go over and visit the iconic Pilgrim Statues and also from where you will get your very first glimpse of the Cathedral. As you will have walked the last 100kms you will be entitled to your Pilgrim Certificate.
