Last 100km of the Camino de Santiago: All 9 Routes Compared
Do you think only Sarria and Tui exist for walking the last 100km? We present the 9 official routes that allow you to obtain the Compostela (including the Portuguese variants and Finisterre in reverse). Detailed analysis with stages, municipal and private hostels, real prices and advice from our experience in Santiago.
This guide is special. We've created it between two Camino "veterans": me, Antonio, after 25 years welcoming pilgrims at my burger restaurant in Santiago, and my neighbour Manuel, who since retiring three years ago has dedicated each season to walking each and every one of the official Camino de Santiago routes.
Manuel has literally walked every stone of these last 100 kilometres across all 9 route options (including the Central and Coastal variants of the Portuguese Way, and the Finisterre in reverse). He's slept in municipal hostels waiting from 5:00am for them to open, had breakfast in village bars, got lost on the Winter Way, suffered the Sarria queues in August, walked alone along the coast from Vigo... and he's noted it all down. Meanwhile, I've listened to the stories of thousands of pilgrims arriving in Santiago, seen their faces of exhaustion, happiness, sometimes disappointment.
This guide combines his actual footsteps with official route data and the testimonies we hear every day in our restaurant. It's not theory, it's real field experience verified with official sources. We'll tell you without filters.

Crowding: Very High (summer: hostel queues), Medium (some company), Low (solitude).
Cost: Includes municipal hostel accommodation, basic meals and stamps for your pilgrim's passport (credencial). Doesn't include transport or extras.

📅 When to walk the Camino? Reality by Season
🌸 SPRING (March-May) - The best time according to many veterans
✅ Mild weather, nature in bloom, fewer people than summer
⚠️ March can still be rainy and cold. April-May are ideal
☀️ SUMMER (June-August) - Peak season
✅ All services open, good weather, lots of social atmosphere
❌ Extreme crowding on French Way, queues from 11:00am, heat in July-August (30°C+), higher prices
🍂 AUTUMN (September-October) - Another excellent time
✅ Fewer people than summer, still pleasant weather, beautiful autumn landscapes
⚠️ From late October hostels start closing
❄️ WINTER (November-February) - Only for experienced walkers
✅ Authentic Camino, few people, introspective experience
❌ Many public hostels closed, intense cold, short days, rain/snow on mountain routes
💡 If going in winter: Choose Portuguese or Winter Way. Book private hostels in advance.
Why are there 9 routes and not just Sarria and Tui?
The Compostela is awarded for walking the last 100km on foot (or 200km by bicycle) of ANY official route that ends in Santiago. Many pilgrims aren't aware of this option and limit themselves to the most advertised routes. There are 9 different options (counting the two Portuguese variants and the Finisterre Way in reverse). Each route offers a unique experience:
⚠️ Important Information about Distances and Compostela
English Way from A Coruña: Although it's a beautiful 75km route, you DO NOT obtain the Compostela if you walk it on foot because it doesn't reach the minimum 100km. Only from Ferrol (113km) or points further away do you obtain the certificate.
Finisterre Way: Traditionally walked FROM Santiago TOWARDS Finisterre/Muxía as a "spiritual extension" AFTER obtaining the Compostela. However, if you do it in reverse (from Lires/Finisterre TOWARDS Santiago, exactly 100km), you DO obtain the Compostela. Most people do it in the traditional direction (Santiago → Finisterre), which is why there's very little crowding in the reverse direction.
🏆 French Way from Sarria: The Classic
Advantages: Complete infrastructure, lots of company, well signposted, services every few kilometres.
Disadvantages: Extreme crowding in summer, "race for a bed" at public hostels, less authenticity.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Finisterre Way in Reverse Direction
What does this mean?: Traditionally, the Finisterre Way is done AFTER receiving the Compostela in Santiago (Santiago → Finisterre/Muxía, 90-100km) as a "spiritual completion" of the Camino.
Reverse direction for Compostela: To obtain the Compostela, you must do it in reverse: Finisterre/Muxía → Santiago (exactly 100km from Lires).
Key difference: In traditional direction (Santiago → Finisterre) you do NOT get the Compostela. In reverse (Lires → Santiago) you DO get it.
Long stages: Olveiroa → Negreira (33km) and Santa Mariña → Santiago (31km) are demanding.
Crowding: Very low. Most pilgrims do it in traditional direction after Santiago.
Tip: Ideal for those who want absolute solitude and a different experience. Make sure to stamp your pilgrim's passport in Lires to prove you started there.
🏁 Conclusion: Which one to choose?
For first-timers: Portuguese Central from Tui (perfect balance)
For socialising: French from Sarria (though with stress)
For coastal scenery: Portuguese Coastal from Vigo or English from Ferrol
For total solitude: Northern from Baamonde or Finisterre (reverse direction) from Lires
For challenge: Primitive from Lugo or Sanabrés from Ourense
For winter: Winter from Chantada
There's no "best" route, there's the "best route for YOU".
Frequently Asked Questions about the Last 100km
❓ I only knew about Sarria and Tui, are there really more options?
Yes, there are 9 official routes to walk the last 100km. Sarria (French) and Tui (Portuguese Central) are the most advertised, but you can start from Vigo (Portuguese Coastal), Lugo (Primitive), Baamonde (Northern), Ferrol (English), Ourense (Sanabrés), Chantada (Winter) or even Lires (Finisterre in reverse). All grant the Compostela.
❓ Which is physically easier: Sarria or Tui?
Tui (Portuguese Central Way) is easier. It has less accumulated elevation gain than the French from Sarria. Sarria has more pronounced ups and downs, especially in the first stages. The Portuguese Coastal from Vigo has similar difficulty to the Central.
❓ How much money do I need for 5 days on the Camino?
Between €180 and €260 depending on the route and whether you choose municipal or private hostels. Includes accommodation (€10-35/night), food (€20-30/day) and stamps for your pilgrim's passport. Doesn't include initial transport.
⚠️ Realistic note: These are indicative 2026 prices. In peak season (summer) private hostels may be more expensive and with less availability. Always carry an extra €50-100 for emergencies.
❓ Is it true that in Sarria there are queues from 11:00am for hostels?
Yes, in peak season (June-September) it's common to see queues from mid-morning at the municipal hostels in Sarria, Portomarín and Arzúa. The solution is to book a private hostel or choose a less crowded route.
❓ Can I walk the Camino in 4 days instead of 5-6?
Yes, but it will be more demanding. The Winter Way (103km) and Finisterre (100km) can be done in 4-5 days. On other routes you'll have to do stages of 25-30km daily, feasible if you have good fitness.
❓ Which route has the best scenery?
Depends on your tastes: The Northern has spectacular green and maritime landscapes. The Primitive offers mountains and rural authenticity. The Portuguese Central has river valleys and vineyards. The Portuguese Coastal combines beaches and estuaries. The French combines forests and historic villages. The Finisterre offers unique coastal scenery.
❓ Do I need GPS or are the yellow arrows enough?
Depends on the route:
✅ Well signposted: French, Portuguese (Central and Coastal), Northern
⚠️ Irregular signposting: Primitive, English, Sanabrés, Finisterre
❌ GPS essential: Winter Way (scarce arrows)
❓ Can I combine routes or must I choose just one?
Only the last 100km of ONE route count towards the Compostela. However, some routes join (Primitive + French at Melide, Winter + Sanabrés at Lalín). You can combine them but only the km from your official starting point count.
❓ Which one do you recommend from your experience?
Manuel (my neighbour): "If it's your first time, Portuguese from Tui. If you want to experience something authentic, Primitive from Lugo."
Antonio (from the restaurant): "The happiest pilgrims I see arrive are those who chose according to their pace, not according to fashion. Listen to what you need: company, solitude, challenge or peace."
