Camino de Santiago Trek

Take on the Camino de Santiago Trek

Join #TeamLC on a classic Camino de Santiago experience and trek the final 67km of the famous Camino Francés (French Way). This unforgettable challenge combines beautiful scenery, rich history and a powerful sense of achievement as you follow one of the world’s most well-known pilgrimage routes.

The experience
