Stage
O Pedrouzo → Santiago de Compostela
Ease of walking: Easy; mainly pedestrian paths and town streets with a gentle final descent into the city.
The final stage delivers pilgrims into the atmospheric streets of Santiago, culminating at the Cathedral and Praza do Obradoiro. Many choose to start early to reach the cathedral by morning and attend the Pilgrim's Mass or receive their Compostela certificate.
Scenery
Suburban approaches give way to historic stone streets, cloisters and the monumental cathedral plaza.
