De Camino de Santiago strekt zich uit van Frankrijk tot de kathedraal in Santiago de Compostela, Spanje en komt door veel verschillende steden en dorpen. 

Voor degenen die de tocht nog niet te voet hebben afgelegd, zijn er Albergues waar pelgrims kunnen overnachten. Deze bieden maaltijden, douches, een plek om je vermoeide voeten te laten rusten en nog veel meer. 

Some are amazing and some a bit basic.
