Camino dos Faros: The Lighthouse Way

For those drawn to wild, windswept coasts and hidden gems, the "Camino dos Faros: The Lighthouse Way" offers an unforgettable walking adventure along Spain’s Costa da Morte. This 8-day, self-guided tour is tailored for seasoned explorers and seniors seeking a moderately challenging yet deeply scenic trek.

The route, crafted by local friends, is a distinctive alternative to the classic Camino, hugging the dramatic cliffs and deserted beaches between Malpica and Finisterre. Each day, you’ll traverse rugged footpaths once trodden by Galician fishermen—paths that at times demand sure-footedness and a touch of courage. The itinerary thoughtfully avoids the most difficult segments, incorporating vehicle transfers as needed, so you can focus on savoring the panoramic ocean views and quiet coves ideal for a refreshing summer swim.

Evenings unfold in inviting fishing villages, where welcoming accommodations and exceptional regional cuisine await. From Michelin-starred restaurants to casual seaside shacks serving freshly grilled fish, the gastronomic delights of Galicia are as much a part of the journey as the scenery. Along the way, your trek will lead you to six fascinating destinations, culminating in Vimianzo.

The true highlight of this tour is the rare chance to explore a coastal Camino route, largely untouched by crowds, where natural beauty and authentic local culture go hand in hand. For travelers who yearn for immersive landscapes, vibrant village life, and a taste of Galician hospitality, this walking tour package promises a blend of adventure, comfort, and culinary discovery.
