About this tour

What to expect
Six days of coastal walking (roughly 12–16 km per day, suitable for all fitness levels) from Santiago westward toward the sea. Each morning you'll depart a small hotel refreshed, your pack waiting at the next night's accommodation. You'll pass through fishing villages, eucalyptus groves, and granite landscapes. Days are self-paced; no guide, just your credential and the marked trail. Evenings mean hot dinners—local seafood in Finisterre, regional dishes in Santiago. The final afternoon culminates at the lighthouse where the land drops away and the ocean stretches unbroken to the horizon.
Good to know
Coastal weather can shift; pack layers. Terrain mixes cobbled paths with dirt tracks—sturdy walking shoes essential. Six-day itinerary suits walkers wanting post-Santiago solitude without the crowds. Public transport available if needed. Single rooms cost extra.
