A Taste of the Camino de Santiago

In principle, we are very happy to take children with us on this tour! However, kids should be used and able to hike for multiple hours in a row along a diverse terrain (hills, forests) under various weather conditions (heat, heavy rain). Therefore, we recommend this tour to children over 12 years old with hiking experience, always accompanied by an adult.

First of all, an open attitude to experience a bit of the ‘Camino feeling’ and connect to fellow pilgrims! More practically, it is important to bring the following items:
Appropriate (hiking) shoes; comfortable, rainproof clothes; sunscreen and something to protect your head; cash to pay for the transportation back by bus or taxi (between 2 and 10 euros p.p); additional food and drinks for the way (optional); money for food and drinks on the way (optional).

In principle, we especially designed this tour for people who are not used to hike 20-30 km for multiple days in a row. The first part of the route leads through Oviedo, which is a relatively flat and easy track. The second part leads through some hills and forests, which requires a good basic condition and proper footwear. What can make the tour especially challenging are the severe weather conditions (heat, heavy rain), which also requires a proper outfit and protection.

Yes! The ‘official’ itinerary adds another 12 km to the route and ends in Grado. From there, you can either take a bus or train back to Oviedo, or stay for one or more nights (perhaps even in one of the pilgrim albergues) to visit Grado and surroundings. If you are thinking about extending the tour, we have another tour for you that provides you with all the information that you need to walk the second part of the trip on your own (see our 8-hour activity ‘A Taste of the Camino de Santiago’).
