There’s a reason this is one of our most popular trips at Andaspain. The final 100 kilometers of the Camino Francés from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela isn’t just a walk—it’s a transformative journey that captures everything pilgrims have sought for over a thousand years. Whether you’re drawn by the spiritual significance of the Way of Saint James, the camaraderie of fellow pilgrims, or the stunning landscapes of Galicia, this iconic route delivers an experience that stays with you long after you’ve received your Compostela certificate.

Why the Last 100km of the Camino Francés?

The Camino de Santiago has captivated travelers for centuries, and the French Way remains the most beloved pilgrimage route in the world. Made famous by films like The Way, this sacred path leads to Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, the final resting place of Saint James the Apostle. But here’s what makes the last 100 kilometers so special: it’s the perfect distance for those seeking an authentic Camino experience without committing to months of walking.

Over five unforgettable days, you’ll cover 115 kilometers through the heart of Galicia, walking an average of just over 20 kilometers per day. It’s a challenge that feels achievable yet deeply rewarding—and yes, it qualifies you for that coveted Compostela certificate at journey’s end.

Walking Through Galicia’s Green Heart

Picture this: you’re walking through serene oak woodlands and aromatic eucalyptus forests, the scent of pine mingling with the earthy aroma of rain-kissed trails. Charming Galician villages emerge like scenes from a storybook, their stone houses and ancient churches standing as they have for centuries. Rolling hillsides stretch in every direction, creating that distinctive bucolic landscape that makes Galicia unlike anywhere else in Spain.

The path itself is beautifully marked and follows forest trails, quiet paths connecting villages, and peaceful secondary roads. While Galicia isn’t mountainous, it’s certainly not flat—you’ll find yourself walking up and down throughout your journey, making a reasonable fitness level important. But the reward? Every climb reveals another breathtaking vista, another historic chapel, another reason why pilgrims have been drawn to this route for over a millennium.

A Feast for the Senses

One of the greatest joys of walking the Camino Francés in Galicia is the food. And we mean truly exceptional food. As a boutique company, we take pride in curating culinary experiences that showcase the region’s incredible gastronomic heritage.

Imagine savoring tender pulpo a la gallega (octopus with paprika and olive oil) after a long day’s walk. Picture yourself tearing into a warm empanada filled with hearty, savory ingredients. Sip crisp Albariño white wine that tastes like sunshine, or enjoy robust Galician reds alongside artisanal cheeses. Warm yourself with a bowl of caldo gallego, that soul-satisfying ham broth with chard and potatoes that Galician grandmothers have perfected over generations.

We handle nearly every meal—six dinners and four lunches included, complete with wine and drinks. For the remaining meals, we share our favorite local restaurants, the hidden gems where locals eat and where the seafood is as fresh as it gets (the Atlantic offers quite the bounty).

The Andaspain Difference: Boutique Service, Personal Touch

Here’s what sets us apart: we’re not a mass-market tour operator. We’re a boutique, highly personal company that believes your Camino pilgrimage should be seamless, supported, and utterly unforgettable.

We’ve carefully selected every accommodation for its proximity to the Camino trail, its authentic charm, and exceptional service. Whenever possible, we choose small rural farmhouses, traditional pazos (Galician manor houses), and casas rurales—the Spanish equivalent of charming bed and breakfasts. These aren’t cookie-cutter hotels; they’re character-filled properties run by local families who welcome you like old friends. You’ll also enjoy some excellent hotels along the route, giving you variety in your accommodation experience.

While you focus on putting one foot in front of the other, we handle everything else: hotel reservations, restaurant bookings, checkpoint coordination, and luggage transport (one 23kg bag per person). You’ll walk with English and Spanish-speaking Camino experts who know this route intimately—its history, its stories, its secret spots. We provide your Pilgrim’s Credential (your official passport), a traditional scallop shell, water and snacks along the way, and our exclusive Andaspain Camino Guide Book.

At the end of your journey, we’ll guide you through a private tour of the magnificent Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, helping you fully appreciate the spiritual and architectural wonder that stands at the heart of this pilgrimage.

You’ll experience that indescribable moment when you finally arrive at the Plaza de Obradoiro and see the cathedral’s baroque facade rising before you.
