The Camino de Santiago Sanabrés, also called the Camino Mozárabe or, in Galicia, the Camino Gallego del Sur, began as a shortcut in the Jacobean pilgrimages along the Camino de Santiago de la Plata.

Here the paths separate: On the Via de la Plata we continue in the direction of Astorga, where it meets the Camino Francés. The Camino Sanabrés leads via Ourense to Santiago de Compostela.

Even if we always use the term “St. James Way” in the singular in the German language, there is no such thing as “one”. Rather, it is a network of many Ways of St. James that runs through several European countries and then concentrates on a few main routes in Spain (the most famous is the "Camino Frances", which leads from the Pyrenees through the north of Spain). However, in order to get from the south of Spain to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, a different route is required, which JavierCR and DennisKe have already described briefly.
