Country Walkers
Spain: Landscapes from the Camino de Santiago
Soak up the rich history and cultures of northern Spain as you explore scenic local paths and highlights from the Camino de Santiago. Our local team has selected from over 50,000 miles of trails lacing the Iberian Peninsula to curate the very best of this trail network. Starting in the heart of Basque Country, a walk along the Camino’s Northen Way brings you the spectacular coastal scenery of Cantabria—returning each evening to relax in historic accommodations. Walk the most idyllic segments of the Camino’s French Way, visiting the charming, thatched huts of O Cebreiro, tasting traditional Galician orujo, and exploring a local vineyard perched above the Ribeira Sacra Canyon. Enjoy a scenic slice of the Camino’s Finisterre Way as you walk among fragrant pines and eucalyptus into the city of Santiago de Compostela—where you’ll spend an opulent evening at the incomparable Hostal dos Reis Católicos, located on the Plaza del Obradoiro next to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Along the way, your local Country Walkers leaders will enthrall you with tales of the Camino de Santiago and the ancient cultures of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, Basque Country, and beyond.
