The Meaning of Pilgrimage

Every year, millions embark on the Camino de Santiago for reasons beyond faith—seeking healing, clarity, health, or simply themselves. The scallop shell, symbol of St. James, recalls the miracle of his relics reaching Spain after his martyrdom. Though walking the Camino may not guarantee success or fix life’s struggles, it offers something deeper: the courage to face despair, the strength to carry on, and the memory of a path that reminds us we are never truly lost.

Pilgrim Credencial & Passport

Pilgrim Passport (Credencial) & Certificates

Before your journey, we will prepare your Pilgrim Passport (Credencial).
This passport records:

  • Starting point
  • Name, passport number, and address
  • Chosen pilgrimage mode: Walking / Horseback / Cycling

Along the way, you can collect stamps at bars, restaurants, hostels, and churches. Once your passport is filled, you may present it at the Pilgrim’s Office near the Santiago Cathedral to receive your Compostela Certificate — free of charge.

Traditionally, the Compostela symbolizes spiritual renewal. Some pilgrims value this deeply, while others simply walk without using the passport.

In addition, you may choose to purchase a Distance Certificate (€3). Issued by the Cathedral, it records the kilometers you have traveled. The fee supports the Cathedral’s free pilgrim services.

If you continue your walk beyond Santiago to Finisterre/Fisterra (about 100 km, once thought to be “the end of the world”), you can receive an extra certificate. Please note: stamps must prove you walked — bus or car travel will not be accepted.

FAQs

What about my luggage?

Don’t worry — your luggage will be transported by a dedicated team from one hotel to the next. Drop it off at the front desk before 9:00 AM and pick it up at your next hotel after 3:00 PM.

Checked Baggage Policy

The checked baggage allowance is one piece up to 20 kg. Please avoid exceeding 20 kg, as any excess weight will be your own responsibility. There is no specific size restriction, provided the baggage is manageable as a single item.

What should I have in my daypack while walking?

During the walk, you only need to carry personal essentials, a water bottle, and some light snacks to keep your energy up. All other luggage will be transported for you, so you can enjoy the journey light and carefree.

Shoe Tips

A pair of comfortable, well-fitting shoes is essential! Avoid buying shoes right before your trip, as new shoes usually need time to break in. We recommend purchasing them at least 30 days in advance and wearing them on several short walks to get them ready. If you’re walking in summer, skip boots and choose lightweight, breathable, and comfortable shoes for the best experience.

Clothing Tips

Skip jeans—they’re too hot in summer and not warm enough in winter. Go for breathable, waterproof pants and tops. In summer, shorts are fine; in winter, bring thermal layers, hats, and gloves. Layer smartly, but don’t overpack jackets. Socks matter: choose thick, moisture-wicking socks—avoid cotton to prevent blisters.

Rain Gear

You’ll likely encounter some rain, so bring a compact umbrella and a waterproof jacket for light showers. We also recommend a long raincoat that covers both you and your backpack to keep everything dry.

Toiletries

Bring your toothbrush, toothpaste, and soap. We minimize disposable items throughout the trip to help protect the environment.

Personal Essentials

Bring sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, a water bottle, and energy snacks. Don’t forget medications, a small first-aid kit, toiletries, electronics & chargers, and handy items like trekking poles, a Swiss knife, or a headlamp. Optional: light entertainment (books, cards, small instruments) and cash, credit cards, passport, and visas if needed.

Internet Access

Most hotels offer Wi-Fi, and some have a public computer for guest use. Wi-Fi may be free or occasionally charge a small fee (around €0.50 for 20 minutes). For this trip, we provide a 9GB SIM card so you can stay connected easily.

Transport to Start & From Finish

Shuttle services are available to the starting point and from the final destination, making your journey smooth and convenient. (Additional fees may apply.)

Pre-Departure Tips

Physical Preparation

  • Physical Preparation
  • Best training: walking—start about 3 months before your trip. Wear your pilgrimage shoes while training (avoid boots—they’re heavy and hot in summer; lightweight hiking shoes are ideal).
  • Tips for long walks: change your walking style often (zig-zag or occasionally backward) to engage different muscles, and rest, elevate, or massage your legs in the evening.
