The Camino de Santiago: 550-Mile Pilgrimage Across Northern SpainPresented by Carey Kish
For 1,000 years, pilgrims from around the world have followed the Way of St. James to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. With Carey as our guide, experience this scenic and spiritual 45-day journey on foot from St.-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France over the Pyrenees, across Spain to Santiago, and then on to the Atlantic Ocean at Land’s End. From mountains and meadows to international hospitality and camaraderie to cathedrals and churches, you’ll get a delicious flavor for this amazing trek. Buen Camino!
