On this adventure series I will be doing one of the most famous thru hikes in the world, Camino de Santiago or The Way of St. James. The camino actually has several different routes, and I will be taking one of the routes that is quickly getting a reputation for being the most beautiful routes of the Camino. The Camino del Norte or the Northern Way. This hike is roughly +835 kilometers and I plan to complete it in 35 days. On this episode I cover days 31-34 of the hike, trekking through the region of Galicia to the endpoint of Santiago de Compostela.
Day 31 - Baamonde to Sobrado dos Monxes
Day 32 - Sobrado dos Monxes to Arzúa
Day 33 - Arzúa to O Pedrouzo
Day 34 - O Pedrouzo to Santiago de Compostella
This video was produce in collaboration with the Spain tourism board, the tourism boards of Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia.

I love 💕 how you smile when you talk to us. It’s like a big hug.
it was such an amazing trip...to hard to keep a straight face :)
Sir you deserve an award for these vedios, one of the best on the Camino way. Thank you very much.
Absolutely great episodes. I have enjoyed them very much. Thinking to walk the Camino del Norte in June 2024, and for sure your videos will help. Thanks a lot, all the best.
Well done Brian on the completion of the Camino del Norte.
Congratulations, your videos are the best I've seen on the Camino del Norte, not only for the quality of the images but also for your optimism and sense of humor.
Thank you!
what months did you do the northern camino?
It's a big true. The documentary is excellent.
The best!
Beer always help) . I know this amezing felings about finish Camino! Congratulation!
Hahahaha...yes it does. Thanks so much :)
What a trip. Great information. We leave in 2 days. Super excited. Thank you.
Thanks! Buen Camino...feel free to reach out if you have any questions :)
Thank you for sharing these nice videos of the Norte. I made this hike in summer 2019, and I loved each and every seconds of it ! Your vids took me back there as I recognized so many places ! ... And also that strange feeling on the last day, I mean, wanting to acheive this epic hike, but NOT wanting it to be over ! I felt it very much ! Your vids are a wonderful gift. Be blessed !
Great to hear!
BRAVO!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💝💝💝
perfect Videos ..... and very goooooooood positive vibes .... THX .... I start this tour next week ..... Buon camino 🏃
I am really enjoying your videos. For other peregrinos who are watching, the albergue at the monastery in Sobrado is quite an experience and one that I am glad I experienced. The opportunity to spend a night on the Camino in a cloister, attend mass and later vespers, in a 500 year old structure was very meaningful, even for a non-Roman Catholic. Thank you for the guide.
Thanks so much! You might be interested in my Cami de Cavalls series...it is a +185km hike around the island of Menorca. Safe travels :)
Thank you so much for such wonderful videos! I was on Camino del Norte in November - December 2019, it was raining too! A year later, I am watching again the videos about the path and your videos helped me to feel this enthusiasm, happiness and joying of life again! Videos from your drone gave me an even greater understanding of the places where I was.
Wonderful! We just missed each other. the journey was epic...can't wait to do it again!
Just watched all 7 episodes of your blog of the Norte. Love your energy & enthusiasm! Thanks for making this.
Thank you so very much for sharing your amazing tour and you simply keep smiling. Just got back from finishing my first 500 km and have just seen all your videos again. The keep reminding me on this amazing journey! THANK YOU!!!
yes man!!!! I would try the north way next year. I just finished my France way last month and got a lot of inspiration from your video. thanks for uploading and congrats!!! :)
Just finished watching your videos episodes 1-7. Fantastic resource for anyone contemplating El Camino Del Norte. I am hoping to continue my Camino journey in Sept with El Camino del Norte so I am sure I will be watching your channel again and again before heading off. Very well delivered. Thank you and Buen Camino👣
Brian, thank you for all your positive attitude and smiles during the whole trip. I will try to remember it and do the same during my Camino as start on Sept.26 and during the whole experience.
Thank you for sharing your trip
Excellent! Thank you for your great work!
fantastic series!
I greatly enjoyed this. Especially your emphasis on churches, monasteries, etc. Very fitting for a peregrino!
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks :)
Excellent videos. Much appreciated and sure to benefit anyone considering this route. Well done!
Thank you!
What a videos mate, you legend!; great job!
Congratulations on finishing el del Norte. I hope that in 2022, I cango an do el Frances, God willing. A Boricua [ Puertorrican in Florida}
You can do it. I am from Tampa :)
This brings back my memories of arriving in front of the cathedral! I was happy to have finished but at the same time sad that it was over. Meeting two of my newfound friends made it better. I've wanted to do it again ever since then. And next April I will with my wonderful friend from Brazil!
Just watched all 7 videos of your El Camino Del Norte... i like it a lot, so inspiring...
Congratulations on your emotional journey, greetings from Spain. It is always a pleasure to find out about brilliant people like you. Thanks for helping me in my English journey and although you already know this, there is no gain without pain. We meet on the way. Buen camino!
Muchas gracias Brian for those great videos👍May God keep guiding your path🙌
Glad you like them!
Wow what a trip! This video was my favorite for sure! Such good feels to complete that last 4 days!
To finally be done...until the next route, hahahaha
Well done. The best Camino video I’ve watched so far. Teary eyed watching you when you finally made it to Santiago. Same way how I felt when I finshed Camino Frances in 2017. I cant wait to do the Camino del Norte next month.😊
Really nice videos, well done!
Thank you very much!
Great videos
🤩 Gracias
ich habe alle deine Filme gesehen ,einfach super,deine Laune ist ansteckend,ich gehe den Camino das 4.mal ,in 2020 nochmal.Bon Camino
I got the feelings that you went on one of the rainiest times of the year 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤪🤪
Loved the videos: thanks. Meeting people along the camino is part of the camino. I met people from everywhere but also spent a lot of time on my own going at my own pace (which was a lot faster than others). I developed a camino family and they helped with completing the camino. Without them I would never have made it. You never walk alone (in life and on the camino). You describe the arrival well: You are torn with completing the camino. It goes to show, it's the journey and not the destination. I was quite disappointed when I reached Santiago. I continued on to Finisterre and in Finisterre I welcomed people I had met along the way. On the Camino Frances, there is no coastline, so Finisterre was the cherry on top of the sundae. Well worth the trip to go there to see the coast. Next, the Camino Norte! Thanks for sharing your journey.
Thanks! Glad you liked it. Good luck on your next camino!
Great videos. Great content.
Congratulation!!! Very cool expirience!!
congrat's ! great videos
*I LOVE The Travel Vlogger !!!*

Thanks :)
Your videos were amazing… I’m starting my Camino Sept 20, 2021… I’m doing the French Way… Thank-You for sharing your experiences and bringing us along… Buen Camino
Very good video! Thank you so much!
You are welcome!
Congratulations, mate. I start from Irun on August 1st. Your videos have been a big help! Keep it up. Seriously, keep it up!
Thanks Kyle! you will have an awesome time...buen camino!
Well done. I really enjoyed your videos. Thanks for the inspiration.
Awesome, thank you!
Great series on the Camino del Norte. I just wish you showed more of Santiago de Compostela- the cathedral, the old town and a bit of gastronomy. Buen Camino!
Just found your channel while researching the Camino. This is the first time i've seen the northern way and id have to say it may be my favorite!
Awesome! Thank you!
Truly excellent videos on the Camino. It's crazy how empty the cathedral square was when you were there. Keep up the great work!
thanks! ya i arrived in November probably why it was so empty.
Nice set of videos. The video quality was amazing! Walked the Camino Frances in October of 2014 in 31 days. Your videos make me want to try the Camino Del Norte.
Thanks! You should definitely consider doing the Northern Way as it is suppose to be the most scenic. buen camino :)
Hey Brian
Thanks for some wonderfull episodes of the Camino Del Norte. I have walked 3 caminos so far, and this really inspired med to go on the 4th.
It will be this Camino. WOW it´s beuatiful.
Thanks again and safe travel.... /Jan
Wow Jan! I am totally jealous you did 3 caminos already, that is awesome! I had done a few segments of the French route as well as ton's of research. And unless you don't like ocean views, this is hands down the most scenic and diverse route of the camino. I highly reccommend it. If I do another it will probably be the Primitivo or the Plata. Buen 4th camino :)
Congratulations on the videos. You explained the course very well and the scenery is spectacular. I did the Frances Way in 2015 and I plan on doing the Northern Way soon. Surely your videos will help me a lot. Buen Camino.
Thanks! I definitely recommend the Northern way. buen camino!
Magnifica jornada e incrível vídeo. Parabéns e obrigada por compartilhar conosco. Felicidades e sucesso para vc e sua família.
muchas gracias :)
thank you for these beautiful videos, I love. You have made a very beautiful journey, bravo. this year, I made my camino from PUY EN VELAY to SANTIAGO then I joined FISTEIRA. in june 2020, I will do camino from VEZELAY through CAMINO DEL NORTE, then I will join FISTEIRA by DUMBRIA. thanks again. Good evening. Thomas
Thanks Thomas! The next camino i want to do is the Primitivo. Buen camino!
That' you very Much. Bye
Thanks for the videos, can't wait to see you on pacific crest trail someday.
Fingers crossed! I would love to. Safe travels!
Loved loved loved your series on the Norte. Having just returned from walking the Invierno through Galicia I can relate to walking in the rain. The Norte is on my list, many many thanks and looking forward to those thick steaks Chuleton.
Thanks so much! it was one of my favorite projects and experiences. How did you like the Invierno route? I would like to do a few more routes of the camino.
@@TheTravelVlogger the Invierno route was quiet, only 5 other walkers, but the friendliness of rural Spain is fantastic, the trail beautiful, but as you know it rains in Galicia. I also walked the Primitivo, a few more walkers, hilly, beautiful. Keep on peddling my friend
One time we hiked a 429-mile trail in 35 days. Found the finish was just the end of another day's hiking!
You should have finished your camino in Finisterre. It's wonderful to see the sea again :)
I did El Camino Francés so I spent more than a month without seeing the sea and it was magical to see the sunset there on my last day (I was quite lucky with the weather). Next time I want to do El Camino del Norte. Thanks for the videos!
unfortunately I did not have time on that trip to hike to Finisterre, but i plan to return and do the camino primitivo and on this trip i will be sure to make it to Finisterre. buen camino!
Great series! Going in 2020 ! The cider house in Naves (in a previous video) looked like a "must stop and eat" restaurant.
Definitely a must stop and eat! Buen Camino!!!
Thanks for these videos so well made. Very good job, but, for me, the road to Finisterre is missing after having given the hug to Santiago. Gracias por estos videos tan bien realizados. Muy buen trabajo, pero, para mi, falta el camino a Finisterre después de haber dado el abrazo a Santiago. Ultreia. Buen camino.
Thanks! Unfortunately i did not have time to visit Finisterre...but i know i will be back to complete more routes of the Camino and I will be sure to leave extra time to see Finisterre.
Hi Brian, I loved your Camino Del Norte series! I am planning my own Camino these days and your videos have been really helpful. Did you make the whole trail hiking every single day or you had some days without walking?
congrats!!!! so awesome! LOVED your videos! What other videos have you done?
Thanks! I have a few series on bike touring and some shorter multi-day hikes. Cami de Cavalls and the Golden Trail are under 200km. Bike touring in Czech Republic. check out my channel to see them all. Safe Travels!
Congratulations. Your videos and stories are amazing. That will be my next Camino after doing the Camino Frances twice. Did you stop many times during your day? Or is because is really hard? Thanks
Congrats on your journey and your videos are inspirational! Question: are you filming yourself? Do you walk away from the camera? I do this on trails but am nervous about trying this in Spanish cities (setting up a camera and then walking away from it with my back turned). Just wondering how you film :)
Congratulations, your documentary is excellent.
👏👏👏
Please, I would like to know:
. If you went to Finisterre after arriving in Santiago and
. which mobile operator you used during the Camino. The sign, the coverage were good?
I'm from Brazil and I have all set to start the Camino en Irún on November 1st.
And... I'm already getting ready to get a lot of rain.
🌨️🌨️🌨️🌨️
Best regards!
Really great video's - I am planning the Camino North in early April 23 - can you tell me if you pre booked your accommodation or just turned up on the day - again thanks, Norman
Loved your series! I’m wanting to hike a portion of the del Norte for my 50th birthday. I only have 5 days to hike, but I’m really fit. I don’t feel attached to finishing in Santiago. I love the ocean and would like to spend a little less time on asphalt. Which portion do you recommend? Thanks, Laurel

congrats! just finished watching the 7 episodes as my friend and i are looking to do the northern route as well. i noticed that the doors to the cathedral are closed, did that mean that you could not go in? are there better days in the week to finish (like a sunday) and schedule the walk properly so that you can go into the cathedral at the very end?
That was a monumental trip. Thank you so much for the videos and congratulations on reaching your goal.
Just curious, did you get a chance at all for rest days or to catch up with laundry?
Hi Josephine, Thanks for the kind words. I took one rest day in the middle of the trip, mainly because of poor weather. But you can take as many rest days as you want...or choose to walk much shorter distances. I hand washed my clothes along the way, i made a video about this..."10 Tips for the Camino de Santiago". Buen Camino :)
Hi - we, Debbie and me, will be arriving in Zarutze to start the Camino del Norte on the 11 May 2020. We will will have already walked from Yorkshire to London before flying to Spain. My question, how much did you budget per day for accommodation and meals. Enjoyed the 7 episodes so much, thank you. Only a few weeks to go before we set off from Harrogate on Easter Sunday. Hurrah
Hi, I very much enjoyed your videos of the Camino del norte. I’ve done 200 miles of the st. James, but had to fly home when my home flooded. I want to return but this time walk the norte. I’m in moderately good shape. What are the physical requirements?
I had a couple of questions: Did you ever plan where you were going to sleep? Also, is there a map or you just follow the signs? I know you mentioned the offline app in your other video. And who sets the distance or which towns you must go to?
what shoes did you use? Did they stay dry? (just finished Camino Frances but torrential rain last 2/7 and 'waterproof shoes' let in), great videos, ta
My shoes were pretty good...Salomon somethings...but they would get wet from water coming in around the ankle if it was raining real hard. I was very happy with the shoe.
Brian, truly a great series of Video's illustrating the Camino del Norte note, my wife and I both pensioners 65 & 70, and our first Camino, some of the daily stages are probably a little to long, understand we can shorten any stage but accommodation isn't always readily available for example from Baamonde to Sabrados dos Monex is 40 kms however there doesn't appear to be a mid stage accommodation one could consider? any suggestions would be welcome.... once again excellent information
Hi Rob! glad you like the series! I do remember there being one long section with not accommodation. I think this is the one, cause on that day i did my personal daily record of 42km. sorry i could not be of any help. buen camino!
Hi Brian! Great accomplisment. Congratulations! I'm planning my Camino, too, although still have to chose between del Norte and Portuguese one. However, I'm not a fan of albergues. I saw that you were picking mostly single rooms in order to be rested well for the next day. Is it complicated to find it in small cities or villagges and what can be found in 25$ zone?
Thank you for your kind help.
BR.
Thanks! honestly the albergues are not so bad...the main reason i didn't stay in more was because I needed electricity to plug in all my camera equipment and I didn't want to hog all of them. However, the added comfort was definitely appreciated. If you travel with another person you can definitely find rooms for $50. I used mostly booking.com to find places along the route, but don't reserve a bunch of places cause if one of your days ends short it will affect all your other reservations. I would suggest you stay in albergues for two nights and then on the 3rd night get a hotel...this should keep you at $25/night. Buen Camino!
Great! thanks for the uploads. im cant decide whether to do the northern route or doing the more popular french route. Im looking to do this in the next month. Any thoughts, differences etc? I will be doing it alone, how busy is the camino del norte in July- August
Thanks Chad! I have not done the French route, but i would say do them both :)....Depends if you want your trip to be more social or not. If you want to meet tons of people i would suggest the French route. But if scenery and personal reflection is your goal then definitely the Northern Way is best. Both ways are great, so it is a win-win. Buen Camino!
Brian, congratulations on your completion of el Camino del Norte. I am a solo peregrina and was wondering about the Camino markings. Were they clear and did you find accommodations easily? I did the Camino Frances in 2017 and it had an amazing infrastructure but of course you had to deal with the hordes of peregrines. The Camino del Norte seems so pretty and serene. I’m also not a youngin’ ’ like you, so would be interested in your perspective for senior trekkers. Thank you.
thanks! I didn't have any trouble finding the trail. lots of markings. there is more elevation than the French route but i wouldn't say it is difficult. Go for it :)
Very good concise video log Brian. Any rough info how you got to IRUN, plane, train, bus. Thank you.
Thanks! I flew into Bilbao and then took a private transfer, which was a little pricey, but if you have limited funds and extra time Spain has very good public transportation. Probably direct buses from Bilbao airport to San Sebastian, and then probably a bus from San Sebastian to Irun. Train is possibly an option too. Buen Camino!
I’m vacillating on which route to take. The Frances or Del Norte. I plan amid September start time. Any recommendations? I’m retired so I have no time restrictions.
Hi Pilgrim! It was a pleasure to follow you on the Camino del Norte. I made it in 2017, in 2016 I had already made the Camino Frances to Finisterre and then continued along the Camino Portugues on the opposite side, from Santiago to Lisbon! I have a question for you, have you filmed it all by yourself or did you have any support for it? Once again, thank you for this beautiful project! Always have a Buen Camino!
Hi fellow peregrino! I went with a cameraman, but we walked the entire way. How did you like the camino portugues?
Nice man! There were only two moments in your videos that I imagined you were not alone on the Camino. Well, the Caminho Portugues for me was something really special, first that my spatial perceptions changed - as I came from Saint Jean in the winter I had the sun every time on my left side, so when I started this new direction I had the sun in my front, so the colors of Galicia changed and also the encounters with other peregrinos were different, because as I was on the opposite side - from Santiago to Lisbon - I usually only had a few moments with them in the albergues. Well, this road is also full of beauties, but much more lonely and introspective for me. I really loved that, amazing scenery and tasty Portuguese food 😁 Ultreya!
Is it true on the last 100 km you need to stamps a day ?
How are the markers along the way? Oh, super series.
There are a ton of markers...but that does not mean from time to time you zone out and accidentally go the wrong direction for a few minutes.
Thank you so much for these videos!
I've decide to take the camino del norte, is it possible to cycle?
I cycled it this summer. The Basque part is very hard. And in the summer you need to be on the road by 6am so you can stop at a hostel at about 3pm or you may not find a bed. I did it in two weeks, but you need to be fit, have good weather and eat a lot of food.
I watched all the videos, great job. I wish you would have said how long each day took and what time you set off. I will be doing it in the summer this year from San Sebastian and wondering how many days i can shave off.
The reason I didn't add this information is because i was filming each day and it took up about 2 hours of each day. If i wasn't filming I think I could have done it in under 30 days. Just depends on how fast you walk and for how long you can walk. 20km per day is easily achieved, but as you get above 30km per day it is important to walk at sunrise and possibly ending around dusk. Hope this helps. Buen Camino!
@@TheTravelVlogger Yeah helps a lot, thanks. I assumed it would take you longer with you vlogging along the way.
I will do the northern route in the height of summer so will be setting off early most days, although i live in a hot country so the heat doesn't bother me too much. I regularly walk 20KL in a day, my feet will start to ache a bit after but i could easily go on for another 20 (depending on terrain) assuming some breaks here and there.
I am thinking walking on 28 to 30 days, but taking 33 days to do it meaning i get some days off in some of the more interesting places.
How much time do you spend for making those incredibles 42km!??
QUICK question- we are planning to bike Camino del Norte - is it realistic to plan 10 days 80-100km / day with the same route as the walking route? REGARDIG Terrain: Will we need MTB or will a cross/ gravelbikes work are there many places we'dneed to push/carry the bikes? Is there a good map or book to help plan? We have done x-Alp via Claudia 6 times already and are in good shape. Is this realistic??? Thanks for any feedback:-). Go Camino😂
What time of year did you do this trip?
What time of year do you walk?
Videos are fantastic - noticed you never use poles......
Thanks so much! I debated on using poles, but since I was filming I figured it would be just one more thing to deal with...I hear from pole users that it helps 10-15%, as you can use your arms more especially on climbs/decents.
When is the best month for taking this northern Camino please?
depends on if you prefer cold or warm weather. The only time i would not recommend is too start between mid November and February, but it is still possible.
Hi
I want to plan my camino on the northern way but i would like to know the costs of albergues and fooding please guide me
albergues generally run between €6-12 per night. Food depends on you. Some days i would eat from a super market and would spend less than €15/day. Buen Camino!
Can you get your pilgrim passport in rumi?
