Camino De Santiago Adventure

Our adventure begins in the dynamic port city of Bilbao. Here, you'll meet your guides and fellow travellers at 5:30 pm at the joining hotel. After a short orientation, we'll head down to the Estuary of Bilbao and enjoy a pleasant stroll along the water and through the marvellous old city center packed with architectural wonders. Tonight, you'll sample authentic Basque pintxos, small plates of traditional foods, at a local tavern.Hotel Barceló Nervión, Bilbao (Dinner)

Today you get your first taste of the stunning Camino del Norte. After departing Bilbao and driving along the dramatic Atlantic coast, we'll reach the region of Cantabria. The morning will be spent exploring the Costa Verde as we hike a stunning seaside route that links golden beach after golden beach. We'll then continue to the Celtic region of Asturias and our overnight base of Llanes. A short walking tour through the town's labyrinth of streets brings us to the town's former fish auction house. Next door we'll enjoy lunch at a seafood and cider tavern with views over the marina. After, enjoy another hike along the Camino, following scenic clifftop paths over rolling pastureland and sandy coves.Hotel Don Paco, Llanes (All meals)Hiking Distance: 13.7 kilometres (8.5 miles), 5 hoursElevation Gain: 230 metres (755 feet)

Today we continue our hike on the Camino, following coastal paths through elegant green meadows, alongside hidden coves and across stunning beaches. When hunger strikes, we'll stop for lunch at a lovely inlet then transfer to Oviedo, the capital of Asturias. Here, we'll learn about the relics of the Kingdom of Asturias on a guided tour of San Salvador Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage complex. You'll even have the chance to see the Cloth of Oviedo, which is believed to have been wrapped around Jesus' head in the tomb.NH Oviedo Principado, Oviedo (All meals)Hiking Distance: 11.2 kilometres (7 miles), 3 hoursElevation Gain: 230 metres (755 feet)
