100km qualifier
Also make sure to visit our Camino de Santiago Forum
Here's a list of the places with a railway station on the various waymarked routes that are more than 100km from Santiago, and thus qualify a walker for a compostela. Clockwise from Camino Francés:
- Camino Francés: Sarría (115km)
- Camino de Invierno: Monforte de Lemos (ca 130km); Chantada is 100km, but no station (route to be officially adopted by the Xunta in 2007); joins Camino Sanabrés near Lalín
- Via de la Plata/Camino Sanabrés: Ourense (105km)
- Camino Portugués: Tui (106km)
- the continuation to Fisterra/Muxía: 114km from Muxía via Fisterra (Fisterra is 85km). No station anywhere nearer than Santiago, but included for completeness
- Camino Inglés: Neda (103km); Ferrol is 115km, and Corunna branch 86km
- Camino del Norte/Camino de la Costa: Baamonde (102km); joins Camino Francés at Arzua
- Camino Primitivo: Lugo (102km); joins Camino Francés at Palas de Rei
Distances given in various guides do differ slightly, but a reasonably fit walker should be able to complete one of these in a long weekend.
