Camino Inglés from A Coruña to Santiago

Also known as “The City of Glass” because of the galleries that surround its promenade, it is a seafaring city where you can find culture, sea, gastronomy and leisure. A Coruña is much more than Inditex and Deportivo de la Coruña Football Club. It is worth visiting its streets, walks and squares and let yourself be surprised by its modernist architecture. Arrival at the accommodation at the client’s own expense (consult transfer service).

We begin this first stage in the old town of A Coruña, which already lets us see that it will be a very urban day, with asphalt and sidewalks.

The route, being almost everything in the city, is pleasant and practically without unevenness. Once we have reached O Portádego we begin to descend towards O Burgo, where the estuary and its promenade will make us these kilometers less. Later, in Sigrás it is interesting to stop for a while to see its church, Iglesia de Santiago de Sigrás, where there was a pilgrim hospital.

Once past Anceis, a couple of kilometers away, we take the detour to Tabeaio (our destination for today) at ~ 50 meters from the road. You can’t miss it.

The day that awaits us today has nothing to do with what we lived yesterday. We change urban environments and asphalt for green, rural and a sparsely populated route.

Even so, it is a simple route, of low difficulty. The only complication is at the end of the stage, with the climb to the Peito peak, 400 meters high, which takes us to As Travesas where we connect with the pilgrims who do the Camino Inglés from Ferrol. Once the climb is over, our destination for today, Hospital de Bruma, awaits us a couple of kilometers away.

Difficulty: Medium.

Today we have a quite simple and flat route. The grounds will be asphalt and dirt tracks. This route will take us to O Seixo to reach the first town through which we will pass in this stage: San Pedro de Ardemil, walking towards the place of Cabeza de Lobo and its church in honor of San Pedro. Then, we will go through the places of Carreira, Mámoas, A Fraga and O Porto, up to the stream next to A Carballeira.

We will continue through the places of Senlla and Calle and later we will come across the bridge of a Pereira. Following the path, we will arrive at the place of Carrás, in the parish of Santa Cruz de Montaos. Finally, a few kilometers later we will arrive at Sigüiero.

Difficulty: easy.

Last stage. Today we will reach the long-awaited cathedral. The number of pilgrims increases considerably as we approach our destination. This stage is not long in kilometers and the slopes are moderate. The entrance to Santiago is through an industrial estate, but the magic is recovered as we enter the old town, until we glimpse the towers of the Cathedral.

Buen Camino and see you next time!
