The Camino Francés is the most popular and cosmopolitan route in Spain. Over some 800 km, for about a month's walk, it provides an opportunity for you to discover many monuments.

You'll leave from the border at Saint Jean Pied de Port and cross the Pyrenees in a very steep first stage to reach Navarre and the Ronceveaux pass.

On the way, you'll then cross towns such as Pamplona, Logroño and Burgos before crossing the “Meseta”, a plateau surrounded by various mountain ranges.

You'll then make your way into Galicia and to Santiago de Compostela.

And why not finish your journey on the ocean coast with a hike to Fisterra?
