Camino de Santiago

Is the pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain, where legend has it that the remains of Jesus’s apostle Saint James the Elder lie. The Camino has existed as a Christian pilgrimage for well over 1,000 years, and there is evidence of a pre-Christian route as well. Throughout the medieval period it was one of the three most important Christian pilgrimages undertaken. Indeed, it was only these pilgrimages—to Jerusalem, to Rome, and to Santiago de Compostela—which could result in a plenary indulgence, which frees a person from the penance due for sins.
Christian legend has it that when the Apostles divided the known world into missionary zones, people do Camino de Santiago until 9th century.

This is the most popular route. It begins in the Pyrenees and has two variants depending on where you choose to enter: Roncesvalles (through Navarre) or Somport (through Aragon). Both routes meet in the town of Puente la Reina, and then continue on through the territories of La Rioja and Castile-León towards Galicia. We are going to explain how to do the route from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela.

We start with a brief description about how many steps will have our way:
-Sarria-Portomarín
- Portomarín-Palas de Rei
-Palas de Rei-Arzúa
-Arzúa-O Pedrouzo

The process to come from Lepe to Seville is to take a bus that depends of the wished date we will be able to find or you do not offer but the standard price is in the habit of being approximately 11 Euros. 

From Seville we take the AVE up to Madrid which approximate price is 22,65 Euros.

We will follow Camino francés.

Where should I start?
On the Camino francés we started at Sarria to just fulfill the 100-km requirement for compostela. But no matter which route you follow, remember that the path is, in essence, just a long path.

How long does it take?
There is no simple answer to this question. Whether on foot or bicycle, how long pilgrimages will take  many variables, such as what kind of terrain you will be crossing, how much distance you want to cover each day, the weather, how many rest days you wish to take during the pilgrimage and, obiously, your physical abilities.

What time of year should I go?
Perhaps the first question here should really be, “When can I go?” If you are a student or if you work, you may have to go when ever your holidays time allows. We will do it in June.

What year should I go?
It might seem odd to consider that the year to travel the route would make any difference but there are some sporadic factors to take into consideration.

What should I take? 

Obviously there will be numerous personal variables here and any 10 former peregrinos will have 12 lists to offer. Considerations will be: How much weight am I comfortable carrying for an extended period? How much experience do I have camping or backpacking? Just how clean to I really have to be? Do I have special needs or requirements, for example, serious, meaning?

Do I have to carry a backpack?
The short answer to this is 'yes'. Assuming that you are walking it would be rather impractical to travel carrying your worldly possessions any other way.
