French Way from Logroño

You can start the Camino de Santiago at any time of the year. However, it is important to take into account the weather and the season when you decide to do it, so you can dress properly.

The easiest way to get to the beginning of your Camino de Santiago is using public transportation, whether plane, train or bus, to the city or town closest to your point of departure.

Once you confirm your reservation, you just have to send us your arrival information (flight, train or bus) and we will organize a private transfer to your starting point.

Of course! The Camino de Santiago is completely suitable for pilgrims who decide to travel alone.

If you prefer to have an individual room, either because you travel alone or because you prefer privacy, at Good Way Santiago we offer you this option. You can reserve all your nights in individual rooms for an additional cost. Due to the high demand for these rooms, we recommend you make the reservation in advance.

On the Camino de Santiago you will find many pilgrims traveling alone. Some will reach the Camino on their own, while others might separate from their companions due to the difference in walking pace. Either way, don't worry: the Camino is very well signposted, so you won't have problems following it on your own.

Most routes on the Camino de Santiago are done in self-guided mode, which allows you to advance at your own pace. We will provide you with a complete itinerary, which includes maps and details about the places of interest at each stage. This itinerary will be sent to you a month before the start of your Camino.

However, if you prefer to go in a group with a guide, we offer routes organized with accompanying guides in the section from Sarria to Santiago. These routes have guaranteed departures and are conducted in groups of maximum 15 people. The guides are trained to speak English and Spanish.

The complete itinerary that we provide is a detailed guide that includes maps, route profiles and places of interest throughout each stage of the Camino de Santiago.

The walking times and distances indicated in the guide are based on reference values, but keep in mind that these may vary according to your walking pace.

We will send you the complete itinerary and all the documentation for your trip (accommodation reservations, luggage transfers, etc.) by email a month before your departure.

At Good Way Santiago we design each stage of the Camino taking into account the needs of our pilgrims, so you can travel the distances comfortably according to your physical level and the days you have available.

In general, the stages of the Camino de Santiago vary between 15 and 20 km. If you prefer to walk less distance, we can divide some stages into two parts, adjusting to your pace and needs.

Regardless of whether you are a sedentary person or if you exercise regularly, it is important to prepare yourself physically for the Camino de Santiago.

• For sedentary people: it is recommended to start with moderate activities, such as walking for 20 minutes, two or three times per week. As you progress, gradually increase the duration to walk about 4 to 5 kilometers per hour.
• For people with regular physical activity: you can start walking between 45 and 60 minutes a day, gradually increasing both time and distance.

Ideally, you should start training three months in advance to ensure good physical preparation.

There is no mandatory minimum time to make a reservation, but during high demand dates such as high season or during special events like Sanfermines (July 7-14) or the Festival of Santiago the Apostle (July 25), the occupancy of accommodations can be higher.

To guarantee availability in the best accommodations and fulfill your preferences, we recommend you make your reservation as early as possible.

To walk along any of the routes of the Camino de Santiago, we recommend the following items:

• Light and dry drying clothes
• Waterproof jacket and pants
• Sun cap and sunglasses
• Sunscreen
• Suitable shoes for hiking
• Trekking canes
• Comfortable footwear to rest
• A compact jacket
• A bottle of water

Depending on the season of the year you make the route, some of these items may vary.

In addition, with Good Way Santiago you will have luggage transfer between stages. We carry your backpack from one accommodation to another so that you only have to worry about walking. (maximum 1 piece of 20 kg per person). We recommend preparing a day backpack to carry the essentials: water, sunscreen, cap, sunglasses, documents, some food and cash.

Every day, before 8:00 a.m., you must leave your luggage properly labeled at the reception of your accommodation. A carrier will pick it up and take it to your next accommodation on your route.

The delivery of your luggage will be made before 4:00 P.M. depending on the distance between the stages and the carrier's route.

It is highly advisable to have travel insurance for the routes of the Camino de Santiago, which covers all unforeseen events that may arise during the journey.
