The Camino de Santiago from Vilalba to Compostela combines the last stages of the Camino del Norte with the last kilometres of the Camino Frances. It is an ideal route for all those people who want to combine from the quiet atmosphere that gives the Camino del Norte, to Arzúa, with the lively atmosphere of the last stages on the Camino Frances.
The route crosses the interior of Galicia, a stretch of incredibly beautiful landscapes. Through intense green wooded areas, you will visit several charming villages and the impressive Monastery of Sobrado dos Monxes.
This stretch of the Camino ends at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Once you have regained your breath, after those beautiful moments that are lived during the last stage of the tour, you can request the Compostela, a certificate issued by the Pilgrim’s Office that accredits your pilgrimage.
The Camino del Norte from Vilalba meets all the requirements so that you can ask for the Compostela: do at least 100 kilometres on foot and finish the pilgrimage at the Cathedral of Santiago.

In the last kilometres on this stage, you will live moments that will be forever engraved in your memory. The first will be when you see the towers of the Cathedral of Santiago rise from the top of Monte do Gozo. The other will be when you enter the Plaza del Obradoiro, with the sound of Galician bagpipes in the background.

Another fantastic plan is to wander around in the narrow streets of the city centre, which are especially peculiar because of the dark colour of its cobblestones. Discovering the traditional taverns of the city and delighting in exquisite Galician seafood are also two essential activities in Santiago.
If you want to fully enjoy all that the heart of Galicia has to offer, you can extend your trip by adding additional nights in Santiago de Compostela. From there you can make excursions to Finisterre and the Cies Islands, for example. Contact us for more information.
