Overview

Walk one of the most scenically spectacular of all the Camino routes on this journey along Spain's dramatic northern coastline from Irun, near the French border, to the magnificent cathedral city of Santiago de Compostela. The Camino del Norte covers 800 kilometres of extraordinarily diverse terrain, moving between rugged clifftops, ancient fishing villages, lush Galician forests and rolling hills dotted with traditional stone hamlets. Less walked than the Frances but no less rewarding, the Norte offers a wilder, more varied and deeply atmospheric experience of pilgrimage walking — one where the scenery constantly surprises and the sense of quiet adventure never really leaves you.
