Spain’s El Camino Trail
After the discovering of the remains of St. James in northwest Spain in 813, pilgrims from all over Europe made this route become the most important pilgrimage until the XVIth century. Crossing through France, arriving to Spain by the Pyrenees Mountains and walking by towns such as Pamplona, Logroño, Burgos or Leon, among many others this ancient trail still today evokes the history and life of the middle ages.
This tour will cover one section of this trail; from Astorga (nearby León) to Santiago de Compostela. Everyday you will walk from 9 to 12 miles over a combination of rolling hills, mountain trails and flat terrain. Since you will cross from the area known as the “Plain” to Galicia the scenery will be radically different day by day, from a flat countryside full of cereal fields and continental weather to the Atlantic corner of Spain where the lush valleys, green pastures and forest remind you that you are in the Celtic section of the country.
