ITINERARY
Day 1 – June 4 – Arrive at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (MAD), and private transportation will bring you to your accommodations in Madrid. After settling into your hotel, join your new travel companions for a welcome dinner at a local restaurant.

Day 2 – June 5 – Depart Madrid and head through Northern Spain to the quaint town of Arzúa. Your journey through the northern countryside means you will have opportunities to stop at towns such as Medina Del Campo, Benavente, or Ponferrada before you arrive at your final destination for the day. In the afternoon you will check in to your Arzúa boutique accommodation. The next morning your pilgrimage on the El Camino trail begins.

Day 3 – June 6 – Today, you will begin your walk and hike the El Camino trails, traveling up to 12 miles on foot. The first leg of your walk will end in the town of El Pedrouzo where you will stay overnight in a local hotel. The small village of El Pedrouzo belongs to the parish of Arca and is the capital of O Pino, a town that has been shaped around the Camino de Santiago.

Day 4 – June 7 – After a hearty breakfast, your group will start day two of your El Camino journey, hiking up to 12 miles today. Enjoy your pilgrimage and take in all it has to offer.

It is known as the culmination of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route and the alleged burial site of the Biblical apostle St. James.
