A revised handbook to the Portuguese route of the Camino de Santiago
A quarter of all pilgrims arriving at Santiago start in Sarria: it provides the minimum distance required for a pilgrim to apply for a Compostela. This guidebook features all the information needed to complete the 7 stages from O Cebreiro to Santiago via Sarria.
The only guidebook covering the Camino Inglés, or Celtic Camino. Popular with pilgrims arriving by sea in the medieval period, it is quietly coming alive again and ready to welcome pilgrims seeking a more solitary way along the rugged rías of Northern Galicia. It provides the minimum distance for a Compostela.
A pocket-sized, 8-languages guide for the pilgrimage from St Jean to Finisterre via Santiago de Compostella.
This brand new Camino Guide includes the last two largely undiscovered pilgrim routes into Santiago. That they have remained bypassed for so long is all the more surprising as they follow ancient Roman itineraries and offer spectacular and yet easily accessible alternatives to the well-trodden main routes.
Now updated to include newer maps and photos - and lighter in weight to support carefree travelling - this comprehensive guidebook to the Camino de Santiago and its offshoots contains all the information needed by modern-day pilgrims wishing to walk the sacred Way of St. James.
The only guidebook covering two short routes to Santiago de Compostela: the Camino Ingles, and the Camino Finisterre and its Muxia extension.
Pilgrims who continue to the 'End of the Earth' Finis Terrae often refer to this as a highlight in their journeying. Both paths 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.
