The Camino de Santiago de Compostella Adventure - to Finisterre!

9th September – 15th September

Come on an adventure, a pilgrimage, a walk, ignite your creativity and be inspired!

The Camino leads from the foothills of the Pyrenees in France to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia – a distance of 791 km (490 miles). During the past ten years the Camino has witnessed an amazing revival to regain its place as the most popular Christian pilgrim route in the world – but this is no modern fad for this ancient path has been transforming lives for more than ten centuries.

In recognition of, “The testimony to the power of faith and the 1,800 buildings of great historic interest that lie along its path” it was proclaimed the first European Cultural Itinerary in 1987 and inscribed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993.

Walked by millions over the millennia the Camino de Santiago represents a major force for spiritual renewal and transformation.

The whole route to Finisterre, is spectacularly beautiful and follows quiet woodland paths, remote moors and breathtaking beaches and is dotted with some of the best examples of traditional Galician horreos or granaries.


You will be walking with me, Natalia Komis and we will be heading towards Finisterre as our final destination, which was until the Middle Ages considered to be the “End of the World” and in the 1st Century BC was used as a place of sun worship by the Romans. You will be walking along beautiful coastal lines and stunning sunsets sampling some great Galician delicacies of seafood and wine along the way.

You MUST see this trip as an adventure, a chance to be free and go with the flow. Pilgrims that have walked the way before us say that the ‘Camino will provide’ and so it does. We may get lost, we may need to sleep outdoors, and we may find some insights, inspiration and creative flow. You just don’t know what might happen!

Let the adventure begin!!!
