  1. The Camino

Routes

The many routes to Santiago

It's a common misconception that the Camino de Santiago is just one route. Actually, there are many. All are signposted with the official waymarks of the camino, not just throughout Spain, but also in Portugal, France and elsewhere in Europe. 

In fact, more camino routes are being established all the time! As more research is being done into historic routes that were travelled by early pilgrims on their way to Santiago, more paths are being officially recognised and funded by the local Galician authorities.
