Camino de Santiago: The Final Stage

Meet at Rúa de Tras Salomé to board a vehicle to Lavacolla. Upon arrival, receive a hat, a trekking pole, and a map for the final section of the Camino de Santiago. Starting at the church in Lavacolla, you'll trek towards Monte do Gozo, where you'll first see the cathedral in Santiago. Your guide will provide explanations about the route and historical points, including figures of Pope John Paul II and giant statues of pilgrims indicating the way to Santiago.

After the visit at Monte do Gozo, continue to Santiago. Upon arrival at the Praza do Obradoiro, the guide will provide further information about this historical square. You will receive a certificate for completing this stage of the Camino. The tour ends at the Holy Door of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela after a total of 3 to 3.5 hours.

The guide will assist you at Lavacolla, Monte do Gozo, and Praza do Obradoiro, providing historical insights. However, the trek between these points, covering the final 6.2 miles of the Camino de Santiago, is conducted independently. The certificate provided is not an official Certificate of Distance or completion from the Pilgrim's Reception Office.
