Camino Guides

Camino Inglés: This ancient route was popular with pilgrims arriving by sea from England, Ireland and Northern Europe in the medieval period. It all but faded from memory but is quietly coming back to life and now ready to welcome pilgrims seeking a more solitary way along the rugged rías of Northern Galicia. It was previously combined with the route to Finisterre which was described as the road less travelled but that acclaim has now passed to the English way (or Celtic way) that starts in Ferrol or A Coruña and now fully merits its own edition.

Few pilgrims walking the Camino Inglés commence in A Coruña which, at less than 100 km, does not entitle the pilgrim to a compostela unless they have walked an extra 25 km in their own country or combine it with the route from Ferrol. This provides an opportunity to visit the only site in Galicia directly linked with the life of Jesus - his first miracle in Cana of Galilee. By combining two distinct starting points we also come to understand the variety of pathways that the caminos de Santiago offer us, inviting further exploration.

This guidebook also seeks to find a balance between the outer and inner journey, between the practical and spiritual, which is why it is subtitled A Practical & Mystical Manual - that we might find a place to eat and sleep at the end of a hard day's walk but also, and crucially, that we might find the courage to dive into the mystery of our own soul awakening.

Camino Finisterre: Pilgrims who continue to the 'End of the Earth' Finis Terrae often refer to this as a highlight in their journeying. In the first edition it was described as the road less travelled but that acclaim has now passed to Muxia which has become the ideal extension for those seeking space for rest and reflection before returning home. The paths to Finisterre and Muxia are uniquely beautiful, full of the flavours of Galicia and her deliciously authentic culture.

The spirit of St. James is alive in the deep river valleys and rolling hills that make up her Landscape Temple. Come and experience her untamed beauty and the purity of the light that has attracted spiritual seekers for countless millennia.

The light, while obscured, lies hidden in our memory. It is no coincidence that the path to the end of the world ends at a lighthouse and the Ara Solis. This guidebook describes the only camino that departs from Santiago.

However, in recent years it has been recognised for a Compostela when walked in reverse from Finisterre / Muxia back to Santiago as the route provides the minimum distance required; but that is not its primary purpose. For those who have already walked to Santiago it provides an opportunity to integrate that earlier experience and a wonderful introduction to Galicia for everyone - novitiate or veteran. Many choose to visit Finisterre by bus but this is no substitute for walking this stunning landscape which offers immersion in the legends that brought St.

James to the 'end of the world'. This guidebook also seeks to find a balance between the outer and inner journey, between the practical and spiritual, which is why it is subtitled A Practical & Mystical Manual - that we might find a place to eat and sleep at the end of a hard day's walk but also, and crucially, that we might find the courage to dive into the mystery of our own soul awakening.

Camino Guides er en favoritt blant pilegrimsreisende, og denne boken beskriver to pilegrimsruter til populære Santiago de Compostela, som er betydelig mindre populære enn de mest kjente rutene - og som årlig kun gås av 1% av de pilegrimsreisende til Santiago De Compostela. Mens Camino Sanabrés starter i Ourense, og Camino Invierno starter i Ponferrada, møtes begge i A Laxe og går siste etappen samles. Derfor er de også samlet i samme guide, som både gir praktiske råd om hvor man kan spise og sove, om terrenget og ting man burde vite langs ruta, og som også forsøker guide vandreren på en indre, spirituell reise. Mye innhold i en liten bok, som kun veier 150g og får plass i lomma.
