Overview

Enjoy a week of easy to moderate hiking along Spain's Camiño dos Faros (The Way of the Lighthouses). This trip is for experienced hikers who enjoy an active and social vacation with like-minded adventure travelers. We will walk along this Camiño visiting lighthouses along an ocean coastal path, staying at small locally owned inns with daily luggage transfers. Our days will be filled with a variety of experiences, from high cliffs and rugged slopes to remote coves and small fishing villages. During a typical day, we will walk 3-8 miles with elevation gains ranging from 300' to 1,100'. We will travel at a moderate, relaxed pace that allows for stops to take pictures, to enjoy the amazing scenery, and each other's company. Our walks will be on a combination of comfortable footpaths and rugged trails with exposed cliffs and wind exposures.
