The Camino de Santiago is a historic pilgrimage route that ends at Santiago de Compostela in Galicia.

Today you walk 28 km from Villafranca del Bierzo to O Cebreiro on one of the best-known stages of the whole pilgrimage. The route begins among vineyards as you leave Castile and León behind and continue toward Galicia.

You enter Galicia through the region of Os Ancares, where the landscape becomes one of the defining features of the day. To reach it, you ascend Cebreiro, the pass that marks the divide between the two regions.

This is an attractive stage with several places of interest along the way. As you continue, you discover villages such as Pereje and Trabadelo, along with the Church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen and Serracín Castle, marked in the source as S.XV Y XVI, set on a hill.

The Camino Francés is one of the most famous long-distance walks in the world.

Today you walk 25 km from O Cebreiro to Triacastela. After finishing the previous day with an ascent, this stage changes character. Aside from one winding section, most of the route is downhill.

As you continue, you cross a landscape with more vegetation than the terrain in Castilla. Along the way, the notable sights include the Church of San Esteban, the Church of San Xoán, and, in the village of Biduedo, the Chapel of San Pedro.

Triacastela is on the Camino Francés in Galicia, the region where Santiago de Compostela is located.

Today you walk 18 km from Triacastela to Sarria. From Triacastela, there are two fascinating itineraries to choose from, each offering a different character for the day.

The southern option includes a visit to the Samos Benedictine Monastery and passes through a leafy environment. The northern route crosses a beautiful deciduous forest.

Sarria is a good place to finish the day. It has a strong pilgrim atmosphere and offers a setting suited to relaxing time and meditation, while also giving you the chance to share experiences with other people.

Sarria is a well-known Camino stop in Galicia and one of the most common starting points for pilgrims walking to Santiago de Compostela.

Today you walk 23 km from Sarria to Portomarín. As you continue, you will notice a larger concentration of pilgrims because you are now only 100 km from Santiago, the minimum walking distance required to obtain the Compostela, the Pilgrims’ credential.

This is a varied stage with many interesting places where you can stop for a break in Romanesque villages. Along the route, the itinerary highlights the parish of Concello de Sarria, Ferreiros, and the Church of Santa María.

The day ends in Portomarín, where there are many interesting places to spend the evening.

The Compostela is the certificate traditionally issued to pilgrims who complete the required final distance to Santiago de Compostela.

Today you walk 24 km from Portomarín to Palas de Rei. The route takes you across Sierra de Ligonde and San Antonio’s Mount, shaping the main geography of the stage.

During the day, there is also the option to make a detour to Vilar de Donas to visit the Church of San Salvador, if you feel like adding it to the route.

Palas de Rei is one of the traditional staging points on the Camino Francés in Galicia.

Today you walk 24 km from Palas de Rei to Ribadiso de Baixo. From Palas de Rei, the road becomes more winding, changing the rhythm of the stage as you continue west.

The day is not only about walking and observing. The itinerary also emphasizes enjoying the amazing local gastronomy of this region along the way.

Visits on this stage include Romanesque churches such as Santa María, the Nurses House, and the Chapel of San Roque.

Romanesque architecture is one of the recurring cultural features along the Camino Francés through Galicia.

Today you walk 22 km from Ribadiso de Baixo to O Pedrouzo. This stage is less demanding than the previous one and brings you to the doors of Santiago de Compostela.

Along the route, you pass through small villages before reaching one of the key visits of the day, the Chapel of Santa Irene, which the itinerary notes is not to be missed.

O Pedrouzo is one of the final overnight stops on the Camino Francés before Santiago de Compostela.

Today you walk 19 km from O Pedrouzo to Santiago de Compostela. This stage brings your adventure to its conclusion as you arrive in the city at the end of the route.

Before entering the center, you first take in the views from the watchtower on Gozo Mount. From there, you continue into the heart of Santiago de Compostela.

In the city, you visit its Baroque Cathedral and the Obradoiro.

The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is the traditional final destination of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.

Today marks the end of the trip. From here, you can choose to stay longer.

Many Camino pilgrims extend their time in Santiago de Compostela after completing the route.
