The Portuguese Way becomes important from the 12th century onwards, fostering economic and cultural exchanges between Spain and Portugal. Before arriving at Santiago de Compostela, this itinerary passes through the town of Padrón where the boat that carried the body of the Apostle Santiago arrived, that came from Palestine through the Portuguese coast.

The Portuguese Way is the second Way of St. James most wanted after the French Way, and there are many reasons: it combines two countries and with them appears richness in their languages, their history, their architecture or their cuisine.

From Oporto to Santiago, you can follow the interior variant, discovering places like Ponte de Lima, Tui or the monumental area of Pontevedra. The interior variant joins with the coast in Redondela, reason why from this town and until Santiago de Compostela, only exists a Portuguese Way.

We propose a path by the sea, starting in the modernist neighborhood of A Magdalena in Ferrol. This city is one of the starting points of the English Way, although you can also start in A Coruña, if you want to get the Compostela.

The Primitivo Way is the original Way of Santiago, is the first of which have references of a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. For the itinerary that today we know the King Alfonso II, pilgrimage from Oviedo. Today the Road to Santiago Primitivo stands out for being declared by UNESCO Unesco Heritage of Humanity along the roads of the Coast, Basque Interior and Liébana. It crosses unique landscapes of the interior of Asturias and Galicia.

For many this is an unknown road, little traveled. It is precisely this feature that makes it attractive. The green of this road is almost "insulting", will accompany you from the exit of Oviedo to the gates of Santiago.

The North Way, recently declared by Unesco World Heritage Site, is the Camino de Santiago that runs through the Bay of Biscay to Galicia, where, at the height of Ribadeo, it enters the interior of the provinces of Lugo and A Coruña.

Along its stretch along the Cantabrian Sea, you will find colorful harbors, beaches, cliffs and the landscape of small estuaries. The elegant San Sebastian, the renewed bustle of Bilbao, Santander with its Sardinero or the immense San Lorenzo beach in Gijón are the most urban parts of this itinerary. Already in Galicia awaits a succession of valleys and mountains, full of mysticism and legends.

The North Road comes from France, and enters Spain by Irún. From this point it follows the coast although in essence it is not always advanced next to it, since the North Road encompasses all kinds of landscapes. In this way, sea and mountains shake hands.

The Via de la Plata owes its name to an ancient Roman road that linked the city of Merida "Émerita Augusta" with Astorga "Asturica Augusta". Currently, the Vía de la Plata is a wonderful touristic route that crosses Spain from the south to the north, showing us an endless number of landscapes. Probably the most contrasting road, since part of a Mediterranean environment, arriving many kilometers later to the green and humid Galicia. It is a variant of the Camino with several places that are a World Heritage Site such as Merida, Cáceres or Salamanca.

As regards its relationship with the Camino de Santiago, this itinerary begins in Seville and from south to north, crossing villages dedicated to bullfighting, wine or livestock, and also runs through the cities of Mérida, Cáceres or Salamanca. This road is called the Mozarabic Way which through the province of Ourense enters Galician, after overtaking the Alto de Padornelo

The Camino de Santiago Fisterra - Muxía will take you to know Fisterra, located on the Costa da Morte, in the province of A Coruña and 99 km from Santiago de Compostela.

Formerly it was believed that Cape Fisterra was the End of the World, that is why many Pilgrims, after having embraced the Apostle Santiago, continued their journey to the Atlantic Ocean, so that they could see the end of the world complementing this path.
