Hi all...

I just stumbled across this site and I'm looking for suggestions for a 5 day trip. My fiancee and I are planning to head to spain in about 2 weeks and are planning on taking a bus/train to the camino.

Given the short timeframe, what would you suggest for the short trip?

thanks!

Well... 5 days is short I guess. Ehm... If you want to "earn" your Compostella and be able to collect it in Santiago, I suggest you start in Sarria. That is the last starting point and it's about... 100 - 110km to Santiago.

If you just want a nice walk, there are many places you can start from or walk to. What do you like? Do you like it flat? Or do you prefer mountains??
