Camino Compostela


A review of our 7 day Camino France hiking - the last 133 km from Samos to Santiago de Campostela. 

Below a guide to each of the seven days with a short video from the route of the day.
The Camino from Sarria is the shortest route to get the Compostela, the official certification of the Camino de Santiago.
Although the usual is to start this route in the French town of St Jean Pied de Port, many pilgrims decide to make a much shorter French route. Thus, they start from Sarria (in Galicia) and cover 69 miles (111 kilometers), the minimum distance to obtain the Compostela
Each of the different stages of this part of the Camino has a distance of just over 12 miles (20 kilometers) that must be traveled daily, so the route can be completed in approximately 5 or 6 days.
Some pilgrims want to hurry their experience and do it in 4 days. Even though this is possible, it is advisable to take at least 5 days, to enjoy the experience to the fullest.
