Weather in Santiago de Compostela

This stage ends in Santiago

Three things before anything else: where to leave your backpack, how to get the Compostela and where the Pilgrim’s Mass is. They’re in Santiago, with the date I checked each one, and there you can work out what time you’ll arrive and what you have time for.

Where will you sleep?

All the albergues, public and private, from Padrón onwards, with the km to each one. In case you walk a stage and a half or stop earlier.

Spotted something wrong? Tell me

I read it myself and check the source before changing anything. Don’t include personal data.

Tell me what day you arrive in Santiago and I’ll email you the day before

One email, the day before you arrive: where to leave your backpack, the Compostela, that day’s Mass and anything that has changed. While you’re walking I won’t write: this website remembers your stage, so open it every morning.

One email the day before you arrive and, if something changes that affects you, a notice. Nothing else. Signing up is free. So is unsubscribing.
