Add an ExtensionSpain: Landscapes from the Camino de Santiago
Soak up the rich history and cultures of northern Spain as you explore scenic local walks and highlights from the Camino de Santiago. Our local team has selected from over 50,000 miles of trails lacing the Iberian Peninsula to curate the very best of this trail network. Starting in the heart of Basque Country, a walk along the Camino’s Northen Way brings you the spectacular coastal scenery of Cantabria—returning each evening to relax in historic accommodations. Walk the most idyllic segments of the Camino’s French Way, visiting the charming, thatched huts of O Cebreiro, tasting traditional Galician orujo, and exploring a local vineyard perched above the Ribeira Sacra Canyon. Enjoy a scenic slice of the Camino’s Finisterre Way as you walk among fragrant pines and eucalyptus into the city of Santiago de Compostela—where you’ll spend an opulent evening at a charming local hotel. Along the way, your Spanish Country Walkers trip leaders will enthrall you with tales of the Camino de Santiago and the ancient cultures of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, Basque Country, and beyond.
Highlights
- Stay in historic Spanish paradors for most of your trip—landmark buildings rich in history, thoughtfully converted into luxury hotels—plus one night at an elegant Relais & Châteaux estate just outside Santiago de Compostela
- Walk through an impressively diverse array of landscapes, from rural coastal fields and dramatic cliffs to mountain villages, deep valleys, and forested gorges.
- Hike the steep, vineyard-covered slopes of Ribeira Sacra’s spectacular Cañón do Sil, then enjoy a wine tasting and lunch with the family who runs the winery.
- Witness a fascinating sheep-herding demonstration as a local shepherd and his border collie corral their rare Xalda sheep with precision and skill.
- Sample beloved Galician beverages, including distilled apple cider and the Celtic-influenced queimada, and learn how these traditional drinks are prepared.

We loved this trip - which was the first for this itinerary. Our guides were wonderful, very knowledgeable, and adapted easily when the weather didn’t cooperate. We hiked gorgeous country, learned a lot, and made friends with great people. The accommodations were outstanding, as was the food. We had looked forward to an Camino adventure for years, and this trip did not disappoint!
