The Camino del Norte, also known as the Northern Way, is famous for its dramatic panoramas.

Offering both sea and mountain views, this Camino route will please any pilgrim looking for a scenic trail with rural and coastal landscapes.

It is also a fantastic combination of cultures, as the Camino del Norte crosses different regions with strong identities such as the Basque Country, Asturias, and Cantabria.
