The Camino de Santiago is generally safe, but walking at night is not recommended. The routes are often poorly lit, which increases the risk of accidents, disorientation or encountering animals in the wild. In addition, all services will be closed.
Most, if not all, pilgrims rest during the night. For a safer experience, it is best to walk during the day and plan your arrival at accommodation before dark.
For the Camino de Santiago, make sure to pack weather-appropriate clothing, including quick-drying pants, a technical t-shirt, a sweatshirt, and suitable footwear.
Also, bring a sleeping bag for hostels, extra clothes, waterproof layers, comfortable shoes for resting, toiletries, sunscreen, a basic first aid kit, your phone charger, an extra battery, important documents like your health card, and the pilgrim’s credential. Keep your backpack weight under 10% of your body weight.
On the Camino de Santiago, you have the flexibility to choose from a range of accommodations, including private hostels, budget-friendly options like hostels and pensions, hotels, rural houses, and even luxury hotels. We also offer pet-friendly accommodations, ensuring that your furry companions are welcome along your journey.
We always emphasize that embarking on the Camino de Santiago alone is one of the most enriching ways to fully immerse yourself in the experience. Living the experience alone is a challenge that can be truly rewarding. While there may be moments when you feel alone, you’ll ultimately find gratitude in the solitude.
They say that the Camino de Santiago acts as the best form of therapy. It allows you to disconnect and dedicate time to what really matters. Reflect on your worries, clarify your thoughts, and begin your journey with the simple task of following the yellow arrows.
Plus, you will never truly be alone. This becomes evident once you set foot on the Camino. Along the stages, you’ll encounter numerous pilgrims with whom you will soon start conversations, share trails, accommodation, tables on terraces, and endless experiences that you will remember with nostalgia when you return home.
First of all, it’s important to understand that embarking on the Camino de Santiago doesn’t require being an elite athlete or being accustomed to long daily walking. It’s an achievable journey for everyone, including you.
If you are considering this trip and you are not sure about your physical condition, don’t worry. You are going to walk an average of 20 kilometers a day. If you find yourself unable to do so, you have two options: start training, do shorter stages, or join an organized group trip which has a support vehicle.
If you’re interested in training but unsure where to start, we recommend checking out our article on Training for the Camino de Santiago.
As you know, there isn’t just one route for the Camino de Santiago, and moreover, there’s no obligation to complete it within a set timeframe. To qualify for the Compostela, the minimum distance required is 100 kilometers on foot or 200 kilometers if traveling by bike. In both cases, allowing at least one week should suffice to complete the journey in stages of 20 kilometers per day for walkers or 50 kilometers per day for cyclists.
The Camino de Santiago can be done at any time of the year, each season offering a unique experience.
High season: From the beginning of May to mid-October, this period sees warmer temperatures and a higher number of pilgrims, especially along popular routes like the French or Portuguese Camino. It’s ideal for those seeking to immerse themselves in the bustling pilgrim atmosphere and make new connections. If traveling during this time, we recommend booking accommodations in advance or exploring less crowded routes.
Low season: It includes almost the whole winter, from November to the end of February or early March, , the low season experiences minimal pilgrim traffic due to inclement weather, with many accommodations and services closed. If embarking on the Camino during this period, thorough itinerary planning and advance reservations are advisable.
Mid season: Encompassing the remaining months of the year, many consider this the optimal time for the Camino de Santiago. With mild temperatures, autumnal landscapes, and fewer crowds compared to the summer months, it’s a delightful period to savor the sensory experiences of the journey.
To receive your Compostela, upon arrival in Santiago, you’ll need to visit the Oficina del Peregrino, situated at Calle Carretas, nº 33.
To obtain the Compostela, you must fulfill three requirements:
- Undertake the Camino de Santiago for religious or spiritual reasons, or at least with a sense of seeking.
- Complete the last 100 km of any of the routes on foot or on horseback, or the last 200 km by bicycle until reaching Santiago.
- Collect stamps along the way on your Pilgrim’s Credential. While stamps from churches, hostels, monasteries, cathedrals, and other Camino-related sites are preferred, stamps from accommodations, businesses, town halls, bars, etc., will also be accepted. Your Credential should be stamped at least twice daily.
