📖 Pilgrim's Guide 2026
Practical information for the Camino de Santiago
📝 About this guide
We made this guide on a Monday afternoon between Susana and Antonio. It's March 30, 2026, a sunny afternoon, and we're already starting to see the first pilgrims climbing the hill that leads to the Minor Seminary from Avenida de Lugo.
We've thought about compiling some tips shared by pilgrims who visit us at the local, as well as data from official Camino de Santiago accounts.
The goal is to try to give a bit of peace of mind and help to all those who visit this page and decide to start the Camino.
🖨️ A piece of advice
We tried to do it well so that, if you want to print this guide, it would be organized and with few pages... but for lack of technical knowledge with this, we couldn't do it and it ended up being 35 A4 pages.
Our recommendation: Save the PDF on your phone to have access to this guide in situations without coverage. If you need to print it, you're going to need a lot of paper 😅

Yes, it's completely free and shareable. You can share it with whoever you want. Commercial use is prohibited.
How many pages does it have?
We were going to make 17 pages. In the end we lost control and it turned out more. We don't know how to use editing tools well 😅

The guide is available in 9 languages: Spanish, English, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Each version is translated and adapted, not automatic translation.
Is the information up to date?
Yes. The data we provide is precise compilations from verified official websites (Pilgrim's Office, Xunta de Galicia, Renfe), experiences told by pilgrims who passed through our local, and our own 25 years of experience on the Camino.

No. We don't ask for email, name, or any data. Click the button and the PDF opens. Nothing more.

Yes, in fact we'd love you to. Share it with whoever is going to do the Camino. We just ask that you don't sell it or use it for commercial purposes.
