Tips

If you have extra time, consider adding a day to explore the coastal towns of A Coruña and Vigo before reaching Santiago, or extend your stay in the city to hike the nearby Monte do Gozo. To shorten the trip, you can skip the Bordeaux wine stop and head straight from Strasbourg to San Sebastián, reducing the itinerary to four full days while still enjoying the key highlights.
