Walk from Colle di Val d’Elsa to Siena along the Via Francigena and immerse yourself in the heart of Tuscany. Stroll through rolling hills, picturesque vineyards, and charming villages, surrounded by olive groves and cypress-lined paths—an unforgettable experience of Tuscan beauty in one short walk.  

Not everyone has weeks to spare — but everyone deserves the Camino.

This 3-day Short Break along the Camino del Norte gives you a genuine taste of one of Spain's most beautiful and underrated pilgrimage routes. Starting in the vibrant city of Bilbao, you'll trade the urban buzz for rugged coastal paths, quiet fishing villages, and the kind of rolling green landscapes that make the Northern Way so special.

Unlike the busier Camino Francés, the Norte hugs the Cantabrian coastline, offering dramatic sea views, fresh seafood, and a more intimate pilgrimage experience. From Bilbao, you'll walk through charming towns like Portugalete and Castro Urdiales before reaching the seaside town of Laredo — covering real Camino ground, and arriving with the very real sense that you've walked something meaningful.

Whether you're curious about the Camino for the first time, testing your legs before a longer journey, or simply looking for an active break with soul, this short route delivers the full spirit of the pilgrimage — without requiring a month off work.

This Short Break along the Camino del Norte takes you through one of the most beautiful and unspoiled stretches of Spain's northern coast. Starting in Santander, a city that beautifully blends maritime heritage with a buzzing food scene, you'll follow ancient pilgrimage paths westward through dramatic clifftops, lush green valleys, and charming coastal villages before arriving in the elegant town of Comillas — a place that punches well above its size in history, architecture and character.
