April 21st – Day 1 – Lugo

Fly from Dublin to Santiago. Upon arrival, you are transferred to Lugo – an old Roman town with fully intact city walls.

April 22nd – Day 2 – Lugo to Ferreira

Walk 27km to Ferreira. The first 10km to San Vicente is mundane enough as you follow the man road most of the way, but after that, it’s a very peaceful walk to the tiny hamlet of Ferreira.

April 23rd – Day 3 – Ferreira to Melide

Walk 20km to Melide, where the Primitivo joins up with the Francés route. Today sees you climb uphill to the Sierra del Careón with lovely views over the valleys below. This is followed by a downhill section before arriving at Melide, famous for its pulpo. How an inland town became famous for octopus, we will never know, but it’s a Galician delicacy and you have to try some!

April 24th – Day 4 – Melide to Arzúa

Walk 14km to Arzúa, another town famous for food – this time the local cheese. Today is a short day that is quite hilly in parts, the highlight being the beautiful village of Ribadiso by the Iso river, 3km short of Arzúa.

Given the short nature of this walk, some people choose to eat into the kilometres by continuing through Melide and on to Ribadiso or Arzúa.

April 25th – Day 5 – Arzúa to Pedrouzo

Walk 19km to Pedrouzo. Although this is another short enough day, there are plenty of rolling hills to keep you honest! Much of the day is spent passing through woods and farms along quiet roads and trails. Pedrouzo itself is a small town that has grown a lot as a satellite town serving Santiago – there are plenty of good places to eat as a result!

April 26th – Day 6 Pedrouzo to Santiago

Walk 20km to Santiago, Today is the day you reach the end of your journey, enhorabuena! After passing Santiago airport near Lavacolla, you cans stop at Monte de Gozo which is 5km before you reach the cathedral in Santiago. 

This is where pilgrims would traditionally have stopped to wash themselves and prepare for reaching their destination – to this day, you can still see the spires of Santiago Cathedral from the hillside to the left of the small chapel.

April 27th – Day 7 –  Santiago de Compostela

This itinerary still allows you plenty of time to explore the historic city of Santiago. Collect your cert, visit the cathedral, relax and watch the pilgrims stroll the old town!

Return to Dublin in the afternoon.
