The Camino Finisterre is the only Camino route that starts in Santiago de Compostela, rather than finishing there! The Camino Finisterre is the shortest Camino at 90km.
It can be walked in 3 days at an average of 30 km per day, or over a long period if you want to walk less than 30km per day. Many people choose to walk to Finisterre after they finish another Camino, but it is a beautiful route worth considering in it’s own right.
Below is a bit more information about the Camino Finisterre route. Do note, we can create a completely bespoke itinerary for you – so you don’t have to limit yourself to the choices below.
