Stage Description

This 22.2 km stage is one of the most popular on the Camino, as it's the first full day for those starting in Sarria. The route is a continuous up and down through rural Galicia at its most typical, along "corredoiras" shaded by oaks and chestnuts. The path is dotted with countless small villages, horreos, and crossroads, offering total immersion into Galician culture. An important milestone is the milestone of the 100th km to Santiago. The stage ends with a descent to the Miño River and crossing its long bridge to enter Portomarín, a rebuilt village in a new location after the construction of an embankment, and featuring a singular church-fortress.
