Le séjour

Dernière ligne droite avant l’arrivée sur Santiago, les 100 derniers kilomètres vous attendent... L’itinéraire se déroule en Galice, région empreinte de culture celte, où vous vivrez intensément les dernières étapes du Grand Chemin de Saint Jacques de Compostelle. Vous ne resterez pas insensible à l’émouvante arrivée dans la ville de Santiago et le passage au Monte de Gozo. Vous franchirez la Porta do Camino, puis les rues et ruelles de la vieille ville sauront vous accueillir. L’arrivée devant l’immense parvis de la cathédrale achève en apothéose votre beau et long voyage sur les Chemins de Saint Jacques de Compostelle.
