Where You'll Stay

Nights are spent in small, family-run hotels and guesthouses that have been welcoming Camino walkers for many years. All rooms are ensuite, and the atmosphere is characteristically warm, with most fellow guests sharing the same journey.

Note: Single rooms are available but limited on this route. If travelling with others but requiring a single room, early booking is strongly advised. A single occupancy fee applies.


What You'll Eat

Breakfasts are included throughout the walk. Many of the accommodations have their own restaurants serving regional dishes with local ingredients, and dinners can be added as a supplement each evening if preferred. Lunches are yours to discover along the way — local cheeses, cured meats and the remarkable variety of breads found along the Camino make for a great midday spread.

Note: Please advise us of any food allergies or intolerances at the time of booking so we can inform your hosts. If you have severe allergies, bringing some of your own snacks is recommended.

More About This Trip

The walk starts in Logroño and finishes in Burgos. The easiest option is to fly into Madrid and take the train to Logroño, a journey of around three hours, or the bus, which takes approximately four hours. It is also possible to travel from Biarritz in France, though this requires a bus change and takes a little longer. At the end of the walk, Burgos is well connected by train to destinations across Spain. There are no flights from Burgos, so onward travel by train is recommended. Visit trainline.com for bookings and timetables.

This walk is available from March through to November. The Camino Frances is a lively route year-round, with local festivals and celebrations dotting the calendar from Galician literature festivals to the nationwide festivities of Semana Santa. Whenever you walk, there is likely something worth stopping for along the way.

This walk is graded moderate, with five consecutive walking days covering 127 kilometres.

The trails are well-defined and waymarked throughout by the iconic scallop shell markers, winding through open countryside, farm and forest tracks, hilltop villages and occasional urban stretches. A typical day involves up to 28km with up to 500m of ascent and descent.

A training regime of three to four walks per week is recommended in the lead-up to departure. Occasional adjustments to daily distances may be needed to align with accommodation, and you will always be notified in advance. Daily walk notes, maps and GPX tracks are provided throughout.

Travel insurance is required for all Stroll walking holidays, covering cancellation costs, loss of luggage and injury. For international trips, your policy must also include medical evacuation coverage. A cancellation fee applies if you cancel after your holiday has been confirmed. See the FAQ section for full details.

Frequently asked questions

Your main luggage is transferred between accommodations each day, so you only need to carry a daypack on the trail. Bags must be left at the hotel reception by 9am — earlier if possible to avoid delays. The maximum weight is 20kg per bag in Spain and 13kg in France. Please do not attach items such as bags, umbrellas or footwear to the outside of your luggage as the transfer service cannot be held responsible for lost items. Broken wheels and handles are also not covered by the transfer service. If you are carrying valuables in your luggage, please let the transfer service know so they can take extra care.

Unfortunately, walkers cannot travel with the luggage. The information you are provided with has details for local taxi numbers, bus and train timetables should you wish to not walk on any day. Your accommodation hosts will also have up to date information and advice should you wish to travel to the next destination by local transport. As always, you can call us in the office should you need help during your walk.

Of course, please let us know at the time of booking if you would like to extend your time.

We don't allow children under the age of 16 to do this walk.

Absolutely. Many people choose to complete stages of the Camino as a solo walker. There are many people walking the route, and many of the overnight stays welcome hordes of walkers, which means you can choose to walk your own journey or join in the camaraderie of walking with others.

Subject to a single occupancy payment, single rooms are available. However, due to the limited accommodation single rooms might not always be available for every night of the tour, but we will let you know your options throughout the booking process.

Lugrono and Burgos are vibrant towns, which has been welcoming Camino walkers for centuries! Both Burgos and Legrono are great plalces to add a rest day.

Coverage is generally good in towns and populated areas along the route, though more remote and mountainous stretches can be patchy. Stroll provides GPX files that can be downloaded and viewed offline, making navigation straightforward even without reception. Always follow the Camino scallop shell waymarkers — the route is exceptionally well signed throughout.

Breakfast is included in your package each day. For lunch, dinner and personal expenses, a budget of approximately €35 to €50 per day is a reasonable guide. Pilgrim menus at local restaurants are a budget-friendly option and a genuine part of the Camino experience. Your budget should also account for snacks, drinks and any optional activities along the way.

Yes. While credit cards are widely accepted in larger towns, smaller villages, cafes and rural establishments often prefer or only accept cash. Carry a mix of both and withdraw cash in larger towns where ATMs are more readily available. The currency in both France and Spain is the Euro.

Shops, cafes and most services close during the afternoon siesta, typically from around 2pm to 5pm or later. Plan your lunch stops and any shopping around these hours to avoid being caught out.

Yes. As only breakfast is provided as part of your package, lunch and dinner are your own to arrange, giving you full flexibility along the route. Please advise us of any dietary requirements at the time of booking so we can inform your accommodation hosts. On check-in, reconfirm your requirements directly with reception. Pilgrim menus at local restaurants typically offer good variety and can usually accommodate common dietary needs.

The Camino passes through many significant religious sites, including cathedrals in Pamplona, León and Santiago de Compostela. Dress respectfully when visiting. Covering shoulders and knees is customary at most churches and cathedrals along the route.

Key items include comfortable and well broken-in hiking shoes or boots, a lightweight waterproof jacket, a hat, sunscreen and a 25 to 30 litre daypack. Walking poles are useful in the earlier mountainous stages but less necessary on the flatter terrain closer to Santiago. A basic first aid kit, including blister treatment, is strongly recommended. A full packing list will be provided after your booking is confirmed.

The Camino is a deeply personal journey and there is no single right way to walk it. Whether you take a taxi on a tough day, stay in a private hotel or simply walk at your own pace, what matters most is what you bring to the journey. Stroll is here to make your Camino as comfortable and memorable as possible, however you choose to walk it.
