In just a few days we will begin our journey, a walk in northern Spain along the Camino de Santiago. The Camino is also known as The Way of St James; the route is to the Cathedral in Santiago de Compostela where the remains of St James are buried. The camino has existed for many centuries, and was highly travelled in the middle ages. It was one of the most important Christian pilgrimages during medieval times, as it is a pilgrimage route on which a plenary indulgence could be earned.
We will be following 325km of the Camino Frances (also known as the French Route)from Leon to Santiago de Compostela. We invite you to join us on our journey through this blog.
