Hello. I want to cycle for 5 days somewhere along the camino, with a day at each end for relaxing. What is the best 5 day route, that's near to airports at start and finish. Thanks a mill!

Hi and welcome to the forum @Sinead C

Whilst the pilgrimage to Santiago can be done with a bike, it isn't a cycle route per se. Also the requirement of having an airport close to start and finish points is a bit difficult as most airports near the route aren't international ones. Depending on where you are flying from/to and how many km you want to bike every day, you could look for example at the Camino Portugues from Porto. Buen Camino, SY

Some friends of mine hired bikes from Burgos to León. Both cities that are easy to get to. (They walked from SJPDP, picked up the bikes in Burgos, cycled to León, and continued walking to Santiago.)

Please approach the walking pilgrims with caution. They may not hear you coming.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Hey @jsalt

Which is the shortest route in Camino. Actually i never visited this place.

Hi James, welcome to the forum, but may I respectfully request that you keep your cycle tours off the camino . Or, at least, please stay on roads, well away from those of us who are walking. Thank you so much .

You do know that you have joined the Camino de Santiago forum, don’t you, a place where most of us walk? Just checking .
