Itinerary
After making your own way to Sarria, you'll have the rest of the day free to relax and perhaps take a stroll through the town. There are public transport options available to get to Sarria. Alternatively, a private transfer can be organised for you from Santiago Airport (SCQ) or Coruna Airport (LCG). Please contact our self-guided team for further information.
After breakfast, a taxi will take you to Samos for the start of today's walk at the Monastery. Although founded in the 6th century, Samos Monastery found its wealth and popularity when it became part of the Benedictine community in the 10th century. It has welcomed p...
Setting off from Sarria today, your walk along the Camino is mainly along small, tree lined country roads and footpaths. Passing through many hamlets along the way, you'll have plenty of opportunities to stop for refreshments and rests, until you reach Portomarin, whi...

You'll be transferred back to Palas de Rei for the start of one of the longest but technically very easy sections of the route, with no long steep ascents or descents. Pilgrims consider this section the start of the countdown to Santiago de Compostela, shortly after C...
A lot of today's section of the Camino runs along side the main road en-route to A Rua, but after finishing the relatively short distance you'll have just one more day of walking left before you reach the final destination of Santiago de Compostela.

Today is left free for you to relax after completing your journey and to explore Santiago further.
After breakfast, the organised part of your holiday ends. There are public transport options to get you back to Santiago Airport (SCQ) or Coruna Airport (LCG). Private transfers are also available. Please contact our self-guided team for further information.
