Travel Itinerary
Today begins your adventure on the English Way! If you are reading this, you have chosen this itinerary to live this wonderful adventure. Well, the story begins in Ferrol. As soon as you arrive in this historic city, we want you to do one thing: leave your things in your accommodation, make yourself comfortable and get to know the city. Stroll to the magical Ferrol Vello and dive through its cobbled streets to the Curuxeiras quay. Contemplate the sea and let yourself be invaded by the immensity of the Atlantic Ocean. Congratulations, because just starting from this pier, you relive the steps of the first pilgrims from the north who inaugurated this route, which disembarked right there. Now that you’ve recharged your intrepid batteries, enjoy getting to know the rest of the city and treat yourself to a gastronomic feast.
Well, dear pilgrim, today the good stuff really begins. This morning your feet set course for the beautiful fishing village of Pontedeume. Today it is a good idea to get up early to reach the destination, as Pontedeume is a place with a lot to offer. Today’s route passes through places where the ocean will not cease to accompany us. After leaving Ferrol and its surroundings, you will leave behind the landscape of the shipbuilding industry, to immerse yourself in wooded areas and promenades. Once in Pontedeume, you will be amazed by its beautiful seaside architecture. In addition to visiting the village, our advice is to venture to the Fragas do Eume Natural Park. This beautiful natural enclave preserves one of the best examples of Atlantic riverside vegetation in Europe. We assure you that you have never seen a green like it!
Now you are probably asking yourself: what is waiting for me in Betanzos, what is the most representative of this place? Well, if you are a good eater, today you have reason to be happy, since Betanzos stands out above all for its famous omelette. Today the route, as well as allowing you to enjoy the beautiful views of the ocean, will take you through beautiful rural surroundings. Once you arrive in Betanzos, you must pass through the medieval gates, which are still preserved. Afterwards, we want you to enjoy its old town, which features some of the most beautiful examples of Gothic monuments in the region. Of course, make sure you try pinchos de tortilla in different places, so you can tell us later which place you thought was the best.
This stage, located right at the “equator” of your journey, is our favorite. You may wonder why. Well, the answer is simple: this is one of the most authentic stages of the entire route, because it runs through rural landscapes and villages that maintain their purest traditional essence. For most of the places you will pass through today, it is as if time has stood still. If you are curious about cultural traditions, you will love this stage, so get your camera ready! However, as far as the functionality of the stage is concerned, this morning you should leave well stocked with everything you need, as you won’t find any services until the end of the stage. ç
Note: The small village of Hospital de Bruma has hardly any services for pilgrims. For this reason we will extend the stage 3 km to the nearby village of Mesón do Vento, which has restaurants, pharmacies, shops and a wider range of accommodation.
Today you are heading for Sigüeiro and Santiago is getting closer and closer. This stage is dotted with small villages dependent on the largest in the area: your end of the stage, Sigüeiro. Sigüeiro is a small village in the orbit of Santiago de Compostela, its origin probably dates back to the period of the castreña culture, so you can visit some of its forts. Today, the best thing to do is to get to know the town, have dinner and go to bed early, to get ready for your last stage.
Last day of your English Way from Ferrol! As we always say the ideal is to get up early to make the most of the day in Santiago de Compostela. Today’s stage will pass super fast between nerves and excitement of the imminent arrival.
You are in Santiago! Feel happy and proud to have completed your English Way from Ferrol. Now you just need to rest and get ready to get to know the city. We recommend that upon arrival, you pick up your Compostela certificate and then enjoy our guided tour of the majestic Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.
Congratulations! You have completed your English Way from Ferrol. This last day you are in charge, you can go back home or enjoy one more day in Santiago. And how beautiful is Compostela.
Did you know that all roads end in Finisterre? If you have been left with the desire to walk and you have 5 days more, we encourage you to complete the 5 stages from Santiago to Finisterre. The most magical and spiritual route that hides real treasures such as Ponte Maceira, one of the most beautiful villages in Spain or the sunset of the Finisterre lighthouse, one of the most beautiful in the world.
