Travel Itinerary

First stop - O Cebreiro

O Cebreiro, a turning point for many pilgrims, a starting point for others. This place marks the entrance to Galicia on the route and you can feel it as soon as you set foot on it. The greenery of the landscape together with its emblematic architecture of the “pallozas” make this place a magical place that has always offered refuge and hospitality to the walker.

Second stop - Samos Monastery

Discover one of the most important monasteries on the French Way. For centuries the Monastery of Samos has been one of the most important points of care for pilgrims on the route, where many were cured of their physical and spiritual wounds. Learn all about this place with our guided tour inside.

Third stop - Sarria

For those who are doing the Camino for the first time or who only have a week to do it, Sarria is the starting point. For this reason, it is an eminently pilgrim village and its atmosphere will immediately infect you. Get to know everything about this village with a short guided tour and who knows, maybe in the near future, embark on the adventure of the Camino to Santiago de Compostela.

Fourth stop - Portomarín

Can you imagine that one day your village has to be moved stone by stone due to the flooding of the old village? This happened in Portomarín, another of the most emblematic places of this Camino, where many pilgrims seek rest. Enjoy a guided tour where you will discover all its secrets.

Fifth stop - Monte do Gozo

The last stop will be the famous Monte do Gozo, the Balcony of the Camino de Santiago. This is the place where every pilgrim glimpses the end of his journey on the horizon. It is therefore easy to understand the magic that pervades this place and the emotion that pervades it, something that over the centuries has permeated the atmosphere of the area. If you still have some strength left, from here you will have the chance to feel like real pilgrims by walking the last 4 km before reaching the Plaza del Obradoiro. For those who decide to leave it to live the full experience in the future, the bus will take you to the centre of Santiago to end the day.
