The Camino de France is well characterized over its entire length in Spain for the pilgrims who want to Santiago de Compostela. Along the way are the KM-stones and everywhere the famous shell can be seen, as well as yellow file. Also for the physical well-being is taken care of on the Camino! For 10 € already, there is the so-called pilgrims menu which consists of a starter, a main course and a dessert. A drink is also included. Also for sufficient accommodation possibilities is provided! Here the prices vary from a donation up to 15 € for simple hostels! These usually have dorms with multiple double beds! But also twin rooms can be found here and there! I personally recommend to get a pilgrim guide before the trip in which the accommodations are noted!

"Buen Camino"
