The Northern Way of St. James: The Coastal Route with Unforgettable Scenery
The Northern Way has established itself as an excellent alternative to the French Way for those who prefer to travel less-traveled routes without sacrificing the historical and cultural richness of the Camino de Santiago. At Pambre Tours, we organize customized itineraries that can be adapted to different starting points or combined with other Camino de Santiago tours.
From Irún to Santiago de Compostela, this route spans approximately 824 kilometers, passing through the Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia. Although the traditional starting point is in Irún, there are various options for tailoring the journey to the time available and the type of experience each traveler wishes to have.
In 2015, the Northern Way was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with the Primitive Way. It also passes through natural areas of extraordinary value, such as the Eo River and Terras do Miño Biosphere Reserves.
It is a well-marked route that is more physically demanding than other trails, a challenge that is more than rewarded by the spectacular beauty of its landscapes. At Pambre Tours, we design a customized trip for you, featuring a careful selection of first-class accommodations; we arrange for your luggage to be transported and plan every detail so you can enjoy the Camino in VIP style—with complete peace of mind, comfort, and without worrying about logistics.
