The Camino Primitivo, or Original Way, is the first pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela and to the remains of St James. The route, which is split into two walking sections, one of 10 nights and one of six nights, is quiet and unspoilt.
Sights along the route include the Walled City of Lugo, the Embalse de Salime, which is the largest Spanish dam, and the Cathedral de Santiago. Another site along the route is the Cathedral of San Salvador which is home to a Romanesque statue of Christ that dates back to 100 years prior to the Camino.
During the trek, you stay in accommodation, on a half-board basis, which has been hand-picked by the Camino Ways team.
