Itinerary
Arrival and accommodation at your hotel in Ferrol. Presentation of the 121 km tour and handover of documentation by our local partner.
Hotel (example): TBA
You'll begin your pilgrimage at the Curuxeiras quay in Ferrol's port. Then follow the Ria de Ferrol to Neda and Fene. Continue to La Magdalena beach before crossing one of the oldest stone bridges to reach Pontedeume. Here you can admire the great Andrade Tower and the Church of Santiago.
Note: This day can be split in two. If you do so, you'll spend the night in Neda and the stage will be split into 15km and 16km.
Hotel (example): TBA
This stage takes you through a series of small villages and alternates between easy climbs and descents. The first part ends with the village of Miño. From here you continue along inland paths to the village of Betanzos, which you reach by crossing the old bridge (Ponte Vella).
Hotel (example): TBA
This stage takes you away from the coastal area and you will now enjoy a rural landscape until the end of your journey. It is one of the most complicated stages due to its relief, especially in the final stretch where you climb the hills of A Fontela and A Malata until you reach the village of Bruma.
Hotel (example): TBA
This 4th stage is unique because it combines the route from Ferrol and the one that starts in La Coruña. The route is similar to the previous stage, following paths through undergrowth and mountainous terrain and crossing a series of small valleys before reaching Sigüeiro, which marks the end of the stage.
Hotel (example): TBA
You start by crossing the Tambre River over the medieval Sigüeiro Bridge. You'll then enter the municipality of Santiago. It's only a few kilometers back to the city. You'll cross the Tambre industrial area before arriving in Meixonfrio. It won't be long before you spot the cathedral. Arrival in Santiago: the end of the road.
Hotel (example): TBA
Your Camino Ingles tour ends after breakfast. Explore the old town of Santiago de Compostela before heading home. It is also possible to choose extra nights in Santiago after the tour. This is selected on the booking form.
