Make an unforgettable cycling holiday along the final part of the Camino Francés pilgrimage route, from O Cebreiro to Santiago de Compostela. Cycling this route is an excellent choice as it is fairly easy to navigate and offers many fantastic places to visit along the way.
Starting in O Cebreiro, you gradually leave the seemingly endless Meseta behind and cycle into a diverse and hilly landscape. The journey passes through charming villages and continues into Galicia, Spain’s green corner, a region strongly influenced by Celtic culture. At the end of the trip, you arrive at the magnificent and legendary cathedral in Santiago de Compostela – the culmination of your long and beautiful journey along the Camino Francés.
