Camino del Norte (Northern Route)

The Camino del Norte (Northern Way) is a stunning coastal pilgrimage route along Spain's Cantabrian and Basque coast, one of the traditional paths to Santiago de Compostela. Stretching 825 km from the French border to Santiago, it passes through the Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia. Less crowded than the Camino Francés, it rewards pilgrims with dramatic cliff-top walking, medieval ports, and authentic rural Spanish landscapes.
