The Camino Catalán, Camí de Sant Jaume in Catalan, is the Camino de Santiago route taking pilgrims from the Mediterranean coast in Catalonia to La Rioja, where pilgrims can join the famous Camino Frances (French Way) to continue their journey to Santiago de Compostela.
Divided in four stages over 18 nights, the Camino Catalán starts in the magical city of Barcelona before heading West across Catalonia’s countryside towards Aragón and finishes in Logroño, capital of the famous La Rioja wine region.
Walking the Camino Catalán, you will visit Montserrat Natural Park considered Catalonia’s ‘Holy Mountain’, Zaragoza city with its splendid architecture and the vineyards of La Rioja.
The Way of Sant Jaume was declared First European Cultural Itinerary in 1987 and Patrimony of the Humanity by UNESCO in 1993.
