Which Caminos does tosantiago cover?
How it works
The main ways to Santiago at a glance
Camino Francés
The best-known Camino: from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port over the Pyrenees through Pamplona, Logroño, Burgos and León – around 770 km, usually 4–5 weeks, with a dense network of albergues.
Camino del Norte
The coastal route along Spain's northern shore (Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias) from Irún – about 825 km, more demanding and quieter than the Francés.
Camino Portugués
From Lisbon or Porto through Portugal to Santiago – roughly 610 km from Lisbon or 240 km from Porto, also as a coastal variant. The second most popular route.
Camino Primitivo
The "original" way from Oviedo through the mountains of Asturias – around 320 km, hilly, quiet and scenically striking.
Vía de la Plata
The long southern route from Seville via Mérida and Salamanca – a good 1000 km, sparsely populated and hot in summer, but solitary and steeped in history.
Camino Inglés
From Ferrol (or A Coruña) on the Galician coast – about 120 km, short; historically the route of British and northern European pilgrims who arrived by ship.
Le Puy – Via Podiensis
The classic French route from Le Puy-en-Velay via Conques and Cahors to the Pyrenees – around 750 km (GR 65).
Via Turonensis (Tours)
One of the four historic French main ways: from Paris via Tours, Poitiers and Bordeaux towards the Pyrenees.
Via Tolosana (Arles)
The southernmost French way from Arles via Montpellier and Toulouse to the Somport pass (GR 653).
Via Lemovicensis (Vézelay)
From Vézelay via Limoges through central France – a historic main way that joins the others near Ostabat.
Via Gebennensis (Geneva)
From Geneva through the French pre-Alps to Le Puy – the usual link from Switzerland onto the Via Podiensis.
Ways of St. James in Germany, Austria and Switzerland
A dense network of feeder routes – Via Jacobi (Switzerland), German and Austrian Jakobswege – that connect to the French main ways. With tosantiago you plan right from your doorstep.
