Ferrol → Santiago de Compostela

Camino Inglés

The maritime Way used by medieval pilgrims arriving from Britain, Ireland, Flanders and Scandinavia—from Ferrol's Curuxeiras docks through estuary towns, wooded Galicia and Santiago's northern gate. This tracked journey follows the 112.4 km Ferrol branch; the shorter A Coruña branch remains outside this route because it joins at Bruma and needs its own progress model.
