A Celtic route

Today May 5th, I head off from my home in Huntingdonshire to follow a 'Celtic route' to Santiago. Not that the Celts used Santiago as a place of pilgrimage, but that my route crosses large tracts of formerly Celtic land, and roughly follows the Via Lactea across northern Spain, an ancient pre-Christian Celtic route to Finisterre.
This cycling venture follows my ride from Canterbury to Rome (Via Francigena) last year. If you would like to follow the ride, sign up for an Email Subscription at the link below, and you will receive email alerts to new posts.

Hi Frank,

Why don't you follow the St James routes in Brittany, in Vendée ... before the "Voie Littorale" after Bordeaux ?

HERE a Breton association web page where you can find more information.
