Camino de Invierno + Templar Knight Fest
Medieval Magic & Roman Wonders, the Templar’s Fest, Las Médulas: Ponferrada to Santiago
Service Description
Celebrate Spain’s vibrant traditions during Ponferrada’s magical Templar Knight festival, featuring a medieval feast inside a mythical castle. Then, walk through the awe-inspiring Roman gold mine of Las Médulas on your sacred journey to Santiago. A Path with History Behind Every Step Long before it became a hidden gem for modern pilgrims, this trail was used by Roman legions and Napoleonic soldiers, and later by medieval travelers looking to dodge the brutal winter snows atop O Cebreiro. Every kilometer you walk carries centuries of footsteps before your own. 163 Miles of Rolling, Rewarding Terrain Stretching 263 kilometers from Ponferrada in Castile y León, through the heart of Galicia, and finishing in Santiago de Compostela, this route delivers a satisfying physical challenge — hills and valleys, not punishing mountain climbs — while steering clear of busy highways.
