The Camino Ingles to Santiago from La Coruna

Start this tour in the important historic port of La Coruna, a city found on the Iberian Peninsula and surrounded by the Atlantic. Visit the Romanesque Church of Santiago in La Coruna, dating from the 12th and 13th centuries.

Explore the Mendez Nunez, San Carlos or Santa Margarita gardens, where birds such as the Iberian chiffchaff, the coal tit or the blackbird abound. Also, don't forget to visit the city symbol, the 1st century Tower of Hercules, the oldest functioning lighthouse in the world.

In the old town, discover the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria, a late Romanesque church; the Baroque church of San Jorge or The Millennium Obelisk.

Overnight in La Coruna

Depart from the Church of Santiago, very close to the Plaza de Maria Pita, and take Avenida de la Marina through the gallery buildings that gave A Coruña the nickname "The City of Glass". Cross the Plaza de Ourense and leave the city until you reach the promenade of the O Burgo estuary. 

Go to the O Burgo Bridge, a construction dating from the 14th century on the remains of a Roman bridge. Later, visit the 12th-century Church of Santiago in O Burgo, built by the Order of the Templars.

Climb a paved road to the Alto de Peito and walk the dirt tracks that cross the farms. You will have arrived where the route converges with the Camino Ingles, a few metres from Bruma.

Overnight in Bruma

Head towards the industrial town of Sigueiro departing towards the municipality of Ordes through mountains, forests and crossroads until you reach A Rua. Visit the Church of San Paio de Buscas before taking the dirt track leading to the Trabe Mill and the O Cubo Bridge. 

A wooded path takes you to the Church of Our Lady of the Merced of San Xulián de Poulo, in Outeiro de Arriba. Cross the Pereira Bridge, walk through the forest and reach Carras and Baxoia before arriving in Sigueiro, a 12th-century town. Continue along the Rua Real and visit the historic Sigueiro Bridge over the River Tambre.

Overnight in Sigüeiro

Start the last stage of this adventure by crossing the bridge in Sigueiro and entering the municipality of Santiago through the neighbourhood of Meixonfrio, a place famous for being a rest stop for pilgrims.

Then, cross the neighbourhood of As Cancelas, and descend to the urban area of Santiago de Compostela, a World Heritage Site. Walk through the streets of A Pastoriza, Basquinos and Santa Clara, discover the Convent of Santa Clara and go to Porta da Pena, one of the entrances to the city when it was walled from the 12th to the 19th century.  

Visit the Praza de San Martino Pinario, the Rua da Troia and finally, the Rua da Acaeceria, which takes you directly to the north side of the Cathedral of Santiago, in the Plaza del Obradoiro.
