CAMINO DE SANTIAGO
WALKING THE CLASSIC CAMINO IN SPAIN
The Camino Frances (or the French Way) is perhaps the most famous of all the nine major Camino de Santiago routes. It’s 800KM of trail has inspired many artists, writers and filmmakers to document their profound journey – such as Paulo Coelho in his bestseller The Pilgrimage and 2010’s Hollywood movie The Way starring Martin Sheen.
The route traditionally starts in St.Jean-Pied-De-Port in France, before traversing the Pyrenees and continuing through the La Rioja region and along the rolling hills of northern Spain, before finishing in Santiago de Compostela, the burial place of St. James.
