Camino Inglés - 9 days/8 nights - Average walking 19km (12 miles) per day
As a Camino Pilgrim, embarking on the Camino Inglés is an exciting and transformative experience. This ancient pilgrimage route, also known as the English Way, holds historical significance and scenic beauty.
Steeped in history, this route has been travelled by pilgrims for centuries, especially those coming from Northern Europe, hence why it’s called the English Way.
Starting from the coastal town of Ferrol, the Camino Inglés spans over 100 kilometers to the Cathedral city of Santiago de Compostela.
Along the way, you’ll encounter picturesque landscapes, charming towns, and welcoming locals, immersing yourself in the rich cultural Galician heritage of northern Spain.
When it comes to the Camino Inglés, there are two primary starting points: Ferrol and A Coruña.
We will be walking the Ferrol route which covers around 119 kilometers (74 miles) and is considered slightly more challenging, with rolling hills and rugged terrain. For those looking for a longer Camino Yoga Retreat experience, join us for this retreat, September 26, 2024 and continue on with us October 5, 2024 (Finisterre /Muxia Circuit).
