Discover Vitoria-Gasteiz

Vitoria-Gasteiz, the capital of Euskadi, is the great city that the pilgrim finds on the Vasco Camino del Interior after crossing the mountains through the San Adrián tunnel. Recognized as "European Green Capital", the city welcomes the walker with a green ring of parks surrounding it and exceptional quality of life. Its main jewel is its medieval quarter, known as the "Medieval Almond" for its shape, one of the best preserved in the Basque Country. The heart of the almond is the Cathedral of Santa María, famous for its "Open Works" visitation program, which allows discovering the secrets of its restoration. For the pilgrim, Vitoria-Gasteiz is an oasis of services, culture and gastronomy. Walking through its streets, enjoying pintxos in the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca or relaxing in the Park of Florida is a well-deserved reward after hard stages. With a complete network of accommodations, it is the perfect stopover for a rest day and to immerse oneself in the tranquil and noble atmosphere of this sustainable city before continuing on to La Rioja.
