The Camino de Santiago is a network of pilgrim trails that emerge from France, Portugal and Spain before meeting on the one road to the tomb of St James (Santiago in Spanish) in Santiago de Compostela, north-west Spain. For the some 350,000 souls who embark on all or part of the route each year, it is often more than just an active pursuit, but a spiritual journey, as one foot follows the other, averaging anywhere from 20-30 kilometres each day for as long as it takes to bring that sense of stillness travellers so often speak of.
