This route is as old as the French Way, the European kings of the Middle Ages used it to reach Santiago
As the Reconquista progressed and the southern lands regained peace, the Camino del Norte gradually lost prominence. For centuries it was barely used by pilgrims, however, the rise of walking to Santiago has restored its status as a route and it is beginning to be very popular again. The distance it covers is the second longest, behind the Vía de la Plata. The landscape and the terrain make it a very special option, but on the contrary, the network of pilgrim accommodation is somewhat scarcer, although there are hostels throughout the route and it is very well signposted.
