Walk the Camino de Santiago
If you’re looking to take on your own pilgrimage - along a route filled with beautiful countryside and rustic villages of Northern Spain - start here, at the Camino de Santiago. On this eight-day trip, complete the last 100 km of the pilgrimage route to Santiago and receive a "compostela" at the finish to prove your accomplishment. Refuel with tasty Spanish food and take the time to stop and smell the flowers - it’s active but at a slower, more picturesque pace.
