Hike the Way

Happy 3 Kings Day! The Roscon de Reyes is a traditional cake enjoyed on January 6th. Finding the "baby" means you'll have a lucky year. We think anyone who walks the Camino de Santiago is lucky. :)

2025 is an ideal year to embark on the Camino. We advise planning your trip at least six months in advance, or a year prior if walking in May or September. Need guidance on getting started? Let us assist you in planning a seamless journey.

Santiago is magical in December! Beautiful Christmas lights and market, street lights and festive shops. We have a few pilgrims still walking this week, and then we'll be finished for the year. Our Hike the Way team attended the pilgrim mass yesterday and prayed for our past and future pilgrims. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a beautiful holiday season.

Beautiful morning on the Camino Frances (yesterday). Today we have snow, road closures and freezing rain when you hit Pamplona. Buen Camino to all those walking.

A clean and private room serves as a wonderful sanctuary after a long day of walking. Booking in advance offers flexibility and allows you to focus solely on the Camino's core aspect: walking. Let our team assist with booking your upcoming journey. Buen Camino friends!

Seasons have changed on the Camino and things winding down for the year. Now is a great time to start thinking about 2025 and reserving your walk.

The combination of tuna, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and onions creates a perfect culinary experience on the Camino. Buen Camino!

Every step on the Camino is a memory in the making, and there's nothing more special than sharing the journey with those you love. A mother and daughter, walking side by side, remind us that the Camino is about connection, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Don’t wait to create your own story—book your 2025 Camino adventure now and experience the magic together!

Now is the perfect opportunity to reserve your 2025 Camino. The Camino is transformative journey that will challenge you physically and spiritually, while rewarding you with breathtaking views, profound self-reflection, and lifelong connections.

Our final guided tour of 2024 arrived in Santiago today, culminating in the Portuguese Camino experience for a delightful group of travelers. We appreciate the opportunity to have planned your Camino through Hike the Way.

This inspiring group undertook the Central Portuguese route, walking from Tui to Santiago. Notably, they persevered through Hurricane Kirk without a single complaint, showcasing genuine pilgrim resolve. Heartfelt congratulations on your amazing Camino.

Another group has finished their Easy-Going Camino. We loved helping these lovely ladies complete their Camino dream. What a feeling walking into Santiago! Buen Camino, chicas!

What an unbelievable year for the Camino! Almost half a million pilgrims received a Compostela this year. Enhorabuena peregrinos!

El Camino de Santiago hace historia y supera el récord de Compostelas entregadas: más de 446.500 A fecha de 8 de octubre, ya se han emitido más Compostelas que durante todo el 2023, año en el que se alcanzó la cifra histórica de 446.039 peregrinos Más información: El Camino Francés, más de dos décadas siendo el preferido de los peregrinos para llegar a Compostela

How early should you book your Camino? This group of friends wanted a custom Camino tour and we started working with them a year before the trip. This allowed us to book custom hotels, restaurants and an itinerary that worked for them. Buen Camino!

It's a wet start in Portugal for our newest guided tour. Buen Camino!

Congratulations to a wonderful group of pilgrims who made it to Santiago yesterday. Buen Camino!

Despite some late September rain, our Camino pilgrims are enjoying their Caminos. Buen Camino!
