100k TO GO! 🎉(Sarria to A Pena)

For those who have little time, but want to experience the beauty of the Camino, you can walk the last 100km and receive the same pilgrimage certificate or Compostela as the pilgrims who have walked all 800k. The route begins in Sarria and ends in Santiago de Compostela, crossing the mountainous landscapes of Galicia.

For this reason, the Camino becomes much busier after Sarria. There are even large school groups! Some pilgrims who have been walking for 4-5 weeks prior to Sarria have a really hard time adjusting to this culture shock, even if you know it’s coming. While it’s hard not to judge the influx of new pilgrims with their cute small day packs, clean shoes, and fresh legs, overall we have not been bothered. We understand that people have time and physical limitations that may prevent them from enjoying the whole Camino and welcome their new energy.Read more
