Overview

The Mundicamino Route is based on the route recommended by the Spanish-language Camino website, mundicamino.com. This very comprehensive website has a wealth of information about the Camino.

Like the Brierley Route, the MundiCamino Route consists of 33 stages, though realistically it is only 32 — the last stage is simply the short walk from Monte do Gozo into Santiago (the point being that this gets you into Santiago early in the day, with the full day available for getting your compostela and exploring the city – not a bad idea, actually). Because it is effectively 32 stages, the pace is slightly more aggressive than on the Brierley Route, though still very reasonable for most people.

The Mundicamino Route listed here follows the ‘recommended’ route on the Mundicamino website for the Camino Frances. There are some small differences, but it is mostly the same including the same stage breaks.
