The Camino del Norte: an exceptional coastal route

Santiago de Compostela, as it is known in Spanish, is the ultimate destination for pilgrims following the Camino del Norte. Biarritz is ideally located on this coastal route, one of the four main Caminos de Santiago in Spain. This historic route, less frequented than the Camino Francés or "French Way," appeals to hikers seeking conviviality and authenticity. The maritime villages, impressive cliffs, and exceptional panoramas make it a must-see for history and nature enthusiasts.

The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, the ultimate destination of this journey, attracts thousands of pilgrims each year, fascinated by its architecture and spiritual heritage. From Biarritz, a truly strategic starting point, it is useful to consult the paper maps and guides provided by the hosts of the Hôtel Saint-Julien, who offer advice and assistance for planning the rest of the journey.
