A cycling holiday, along Spain's legendary Camino de Santiago, that traces the steps of ancient travellers, as we make our way from Leon to the burial place of the apostle St. James! This is a gently paced cycling holiday in a land of miracles, mysteries and legends. Following quiet roads and well-surfaced tracks, we enjoy the warmth of the Spanish sunshine as we cycle in hillsides alongside the Cantabrian Mountains.
For over eleven centuries pilgrims have followed this ancient route to Santiago de Compostela through the rolling Galician hills - a land of idyllic hamlets, incredible Gothic cathedrals and tranquil Romanesque monasteries.
During our cycling holiday, you’ll hear of King Charlemagne and St. Francis of Assissi and the stories of medieval hero El Cid, as we bike the paths once taken by the Templar Knights. Amongst the many highlights during this holiday are the stunning cathedrals of Leon and Santiago and the Celtic huts (pallozas) of Cebreiro and the great camaraderie of fellow travellers you’ll meet on the route.
Accommodation is in small hotels, chosen for their location and quality. Breakfasts are taken at the accommodation, lunches picnic style, and evening meals at local restaurants allowing you to sample the delicious regional cuisine.
As with all of our guided cycling holidays in Spain, the Skedaddle support vehicle is never far away, should you need a snack, drink or a lift on a particular section of the route.
