Hello, I decided to start my trip from Siarra, Spain but I have no clue how to reach it and by which means. I am coming from Lebanon, should I take a plane to Barvelone or Madrid and from there what is the best way to reach Siarra.
Thanks for helping.

Welcome to the forum @Yaraft ;-)
The easiest way would be actually flying into Santiago and then taking a bus via Lugo (well worth a visit!) to Sarria.
Buen Camino, SY

thank you for your reply, do you think it is difficult to reach Siarra from Madrid or Barcelona, because it is toooo expensive to go from my country to Santiago directly.

RyanAir has flights from Barcelona to Santiago for as little as $21 US. From the airport, SCQ, you can take a bus to Lugo and transfer to a bus to Sarria. The total bus fare is about $20 US. Taking the train or bus will require almost a day of traveling; the plane/bus combination is about 8 hours.

No need to go directly, look at connecting flights from anywhere in Europe ;-) Buen Camino, SY

Renfe operates trains from either Barcelona or Madrid to Sarria.

It might be time effective to take a flight from Barcelona or Madrid to Santiago. Empresa Freire operates buses from Santiago Airport to Lugo. Monbus operates a bus from Lugo to Monforte de Lemos via Sarria.
